Correlation Between Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Nanotechnology

This research aims to find the relationship between Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and nanotechnology and carry out bibliometric analysis to determine research trends in CFD and nanotechnology. This research used bibliometric analysis methods. The keywords used are "Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)" and "Nanotechnology". The data processing and analysis are carried out quantitatively based on the principles of bibliometric analysis. The search results show that the year range for research publication articles on CFD and Nanotechnology used is from 2001 - 2024 with a total of 193 documents. The results of this research show that the relationship between CFD and nanotechnology is very close. This is because CFD provides an important tool for understanding, designing, and optimizing various processes and devices at the nanoscale. Additionally, CFD enables faster and more efficient progress in various nanotechnology applications. Based on an analysis of research developments, the development of article publications on CFD and nanotechnology in Scopus has a tendency to increase from the beginning of 2001 to 2024. In this research, it is known that the topic of CFD has become a research trend in the period 2012 to 2019 with the highest trend in 2016. Meanwhile, the topic of nanotechnology became a research trend from 2010 to 2018 with the highest trend in 2014. This research development can be caused by significant technological and methodological advances since the Industrial Revolution 4.0 which began at the beginning of the 21st century until now. This research can be used as consideration and reference for further research which will discuss CFD and nanotechnology.
