Abstract: Quantum computing is one of the most important post Moore’s Law computing technologies. It can harness the unparalleled computing capacity of the quantum computers, compared with classic computers. Quantum computing will bring a disruptive impact on various industries in the future. With respect to the opportunities and challenges brought by quantum computing to aerodynamics, we first present a detailed survey on the research progress of quantum computers, quantum algorithms, and quantum infrastructure software stack. Then, we select the most commonly used basic methods in the field of aerodynamics and present the recent advances in quantum equations in solving linear equations, interpolation operations, numerical integration, and search optimization. Next, the application prospects of quantum computing in the field of aerodynamics are systematically analyzed. Finally, we point out the research direction that needs to be focused on, including the quantum algorithm relevant to aerodynamics and the quantum software environment that should be built.

Key words: quantum computing, quantum algorithm, quantum computer, quantum software, aerodynamics
