Computational Fluid Dynamics: Insights and Applications in thePharmaceutical Field

Abstracts: Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a feasible tool to examine and troubleshoot different types of equipment utilized in the pharmaceutical industry or healthcare. As a large number of fluids are processed by unit operations, even some increments in performance and efficiency may escalate profits and reduce costs. CFD methods are primarily used in the automobile and aerospace industries, but in the current era, this technology is extensively applied in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries and has become an important tool for process design scaleup and optimization. CFD is a numerical approach utilizing CFD software to solve equations numerically. This review focuses on the diverse utilization of CFD in the pharmaceutical field and current applications in the COVID 19 pandemic, a recent health crisis that is intimidating the world.
