I'm a CFD guy and I have absolutely no clue how anyone expects to get any aerodynamics simulation results out of that with anything resembling usefulness.
Really, even a super-simple 2D wing profile simulation that you can run in milliseconds even in javascript will require data storage that's absolutely massive compared to 2000 qubits.
- arcanus 10y agoAlso CFD guy, completely agree with the above. Quantum computers have several algorithms for various applications, such ashort shors for factorization. Not aware of any algos for CFD. Perhaps a rarefied gas dynamics, bolts man distribution sort of application could be created? At least in some cases quantum mechanical effects are significant...
