Verification and Validation in Computational Fluid Dynamics

TL;DR: An extensive review of the literature in V&V in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is presented, methods and procedures for assessing V &V are discussed, and a relatively new procedure for estimating experimental uncertainty is given that has proven more effective at estimating random and correlated bias errors in wind-tunnel experiments than traditional methods.

Verification of Codes and Calculations

Patrick J. Roache
- 01 Jan 1998 - 
TL;DR: Emphasis is given to rigorous code verification via systematic grid convergence using the method of manufactured solutions, and a simple method for uniform reporting of grid convergence studies using the Grid Convergence Index (GCI).
