Abstract
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool that helps scientists and engineers understand how fluids behave and move, whether in the air, liquids, or biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes. This technology, which uses computer simulations to replicate real-world scenarios, plays a critical role in various industries, including medicine and drug development. By creating virtual experiments on computers, CFD allows researchers to gain insights into the interaction of biological components for drug production at different scales, from small laboratory experiments to large-scale manufacturing processes and fast-track process optimisation. The strategy and implementation of CFD for a bioreactor system has been explained in this article.
