Abstract
Fundamental principles of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modelling are presented together with a brief review of CFD applied to wave energy converters. Results are presented for a range of models including incompressible and compressible two-phase flows. Limitations of CFD modelling are discussed together with future developments in CFD.
