Lies, Damned Lies, and “CFD Comparison Charts” – Part IV
So, after three blog posts, what is the moral of this Blue Ridge Numerics’ “CFD Comparison Chart” saga?
Well, clearly one should not believe every “CFD Comparison Chart”! – or even the many “charts” that…View Blog Post
Lies, Damned Lies, and “CFD Comparison Charts” – Part III
In my earlier posts I pointed out some glaring errors in the “CFD Comparison Chart” that Blue Ridge Numerics released on March 19th this year. Once we became aware of the “Chart” we quickly wrote a letter…View Blog Post
