How do engineers design and test new aircraft designs?

Can some explain how engineers design and test their aircraft designs? I have seen videos online where they use computers to design and test, How does that work?

They rely on the power of CFD - Complutational Fluid Dynamics. Using powerful computers 💻️, equations governing fluid motion such as Navier-Stokes and others, are solved to identify the dynamics of the fluid as it moves through/around an object.

Thanks for your response @bsista!!

I would like to learn more about CFD but dont know where to start 🤷. Do you have any recommendation?
