Abstract

Applications of computational fluid (CFD) dynamics in agriculture and food industry are becoming important because of its versatility, accuracy and user friendliness. Now CFD is regularly used to solve environmental problems of structures and animal production systems. In the recent years this is becoming popular in drying and storage of agricultural products. This paper presents the state of art of CFD and its applications in greenhouse, animal housing, drying and storage. The potentials of CFD are also discussed.
