Nowadays, the aerodynamic data of airfoils is obtained mainly by the viscous-nonviscous iteration method[7] considering potential flow and boundary layer, the computational fluid dynamics method(CFD) based on N-S equations[8] and wind tunnel experiments[9] and so on.
In this paper, the XFOIL software is selected in the optimized design of airfoils due to the complexity of the CFD method in the calculating process.

The flow driven by heat difference and buoyant force in such a cavity has been widely investigated by simulations or experiments.
Compared to conventional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) algorithm that solve the momentum and energy equations by finite volume method (FVM)[2] or arbitrary Lagrange equation (ALE), LBM uses a kinetic equation to solve the flow at microscopic level and conservative transport equation for macroscopic variables, which is time-cost saving and easy to parallelization[3].
In section 2, numerical method for the 2D differentially heated cavity simulation is described, including the governing equations and physical model.
Results for the simulations under different Rayleigh numbers from 103 to 106, and the aspect ratios range from 0.5 to 10 are obtained.

Such problems are solved by multi field numerical simulation approach.
Multi-Field Simulation Modeling With rapid developments in numerical methods, especially in computational fluid dynamics (CFD), researchers are applying it in predicting and solving complex fluid structure interaction (FSI) problems.
The displaced shape from CSD is further coupled with computational fluid dynamics (CFD), from which new loadings are determined.
Coupling time duration of 120s with time step of 0.1s and transient analyses are also defined in this simulation.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques provide a method to solve these problems.
So far, it is generally accepted that CFD codes have difficulties in estimating impact loads [14].
CFD methods are time consuming, making statistical estimations of response variables in sea difficult [4].
Discussion Establishing an inverse problem analysis approach for structural analysis can result in important advantages over simulation, numerical or theoretical methods.
In contrast, they are necessary for valid and accurate simulation, numerical or theoretical analysis.

The pressure waves in one working cycle and the flow field were displayed based on numerical simulation.
The efficiency from both numerical simulation and experiment tend to go up with the increasing of the outlet pressure and then fall down.
The two curves show a good agreement, while the results of simulation are a little higher than the experiment.

A two-dimensional CFD model is built to simulate the combustion chamber domain, and the partially premixed combustion model with a postprocessor for NOx calculations is used to simulate the combustion process inside the combustion chamber.
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling was also applied to SNCR.
In respect of physical models, by considering the accuracy and stability of the models and by referring to the evaluation reports of other researchers, the standard k-ε Model [9],P-1 radiation model [10] and non-premixed combustion model with β–type probability density function are adopted for turbulence, radiation and combustion simulations, respectively.
The simulation conditions are provided by Formosa Petrochemical Corporation.
From the simulation results, it is found that refractory thickening has little influence on the reacting flow and NOx formation in the oxidizer section.
