Over at NASA, Michelle Moyers writes that the 2016 NASA Software of the Year Award has gone to Pegasus 5, a revolutionary CFD tool. "Developed in-house by a team led by aerospace engineer Stuart ...

The analytical test tank or water tunnel for the CFD model was a 1,000-in.-long pipe with a 249-in. ID. The software test tunnel was filled with room-temperature water moving through at 1 to 7 knots.
