engineering approximation are guesses they are not philosophy, philosophy is based on logical reason. When have you been able to see alot of the stuff in engineering. Most of materials science is based around guestimation of what you cant see.

You most certainly dont need 125gb of ram for this simulation eek. Then chem engers run full multiphase analysis on 80gb of ram. Run some simplifying assumptions. I know for a fact one of my lectures has run CFD on a water pump and i dont think he used a supercomputer to do it.
Aximsymetric flow at the outlet of one nozzle. This makes it 2d and you can add thousands of cells if you want your going to get near enough the same answer if you use the right cell geometry. Problems are going to occur when you get down to microscale roughness that cant be modeled but im guessing thats beyond your abilities leave the phds to it.

What program are you using to model stuff?
