The article reviews fluid flow models implemented in the leading CFD software tools and designed for simulation of multi-component and multi-phase flows, compressible flows, flows with heat transfer, cavitation and other phenomena. The article shows that these software tools (CFX, Fluent, STAR-CD, etc.) allow for adequate simulation of complex physical effects of different nature, even for problems where performing of physical experiment is extremely difficult.
