e-AIRS, an abbreviation of 'e-Science Aerospace Integrated Research System,' is a virtual organization supporting CFD(computational fluid dynamics) simulations, remote experimental service, and collaborative and integrative study between computation and experiment. e-AIRS works on the e-Science environment and research process is accomplished through the web portal. By the system development since 2005, a stable education system with the full support on fluid dynamics is successfully established and utilized to various fluid dynamic lectures in universities. By using e-AIRS system during a lecture, students can conduct the full CFD simulation process on the web and inspect the wind tunnel experiment via Access Grid. This kind of interactive lecture makes students to have a deeper understanding on the physics of fluid, as well as the characteristics of numerical techniques. The current paper will describe system components of e-AIRS and its utilization on education.

e-AIRS, an abbreviation of ‘e-Aerospace Integrated Research System’, is a virtual organization designed to support the aerospace engineering processes in the e-Science environment. As the first step toward a virtual aerospace engineering organization, the e-AIRS intends to give a full support to aerodynamic research processes. Currently, the e-AIRS can handle both the computational and experimental aerodynamic researches on the e-Science infrastructure. In detail, users can conduct the full CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) research processes, request wind tunnel experiments, perform the comparative analysis between computational and experimental resultants and finally collaborate with other researchers using the web portal. The current paper will describe those functions and the internal architecture of the e-AIRS system.
