Computational fluid dynamics, an Uncommon card
Computational fluid dynamics is a branch of both fluid mechanics and computational physics that uses numerical analysis and data structures to analyze and solve problems that involve flows.

Power 164 (ATK + DEF): stronger than 85 % of WikiCards cards.
Computational fluid dynamics quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Computational fluid dynamics card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
With high-speed ______, better solutions can be achieved, and are often required to solve the largest and most complex problems.
Answer
supercomputers. With high-speed supercomputers, better solutions can be achieved, and are often required to solve the largest and most complex problems. From the Computational fluid dynamics article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Evolutionary psychology. Evolutionary psychology 92 · English as a second or foreign language 87 · Computational fluid dynamics 80 · Iapetus 76 ATK in WikiCards.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Computers are used to perform the calculations required to simulate the free-stream flow of the fluid, and the interaction of the fluid with surfaces defined by boundary conditions.
- With high-speed supercomputers, better solutions can be achieved, and are often required to solve the largest and most complex problems.
- Ongoing research yields software that improves the accuracy and speed of complex simulation scenarios such as transonic or turbulent flows.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Computational fluid dynamics article was read about 90,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 80 and blocks with 84: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
How to get Computational fluid dynamics
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
