Alan,

As your request is fairly Gentoo specific, please visit:

http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/lists.xml

and subscribe to the gentoo-cluster list.

RE: the navier stokes (CFD) bits, there are several codes out there. One is
even situated in your neck of the woods:

http://www.opencfd.co.uk/openfoam/

FYI, there is a CFD component being added to Cactus, which may be of value
to you:
