Introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics

If you are new to CFD, a must read is this book, as recommended by cfd-online: Computational Fluid Dynamics: The Basics with Applications, by John David Anderson, 1995. Yes this book is nearly 20 years old, but is a very nice introduction to the topic, the theory doesn't age. A bad quality pdf is wandering on the Web.

If you want to see what CFD looks like on the theory and programming side, a brief overview of a basic method is presented in: A Practical Introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics on GPUs from the GPU Tech Conference 2010 (direct link to slides+voice mp4 and presentation's pdf). This presentation's main topic is using OpenCL to speed up CFD applications, so OpenCL is briefly presented too if you're interested.

CFD-Wiki, lots of useful pages and references.
