Improved CFD solver?

While there are a few CFD solvers in Julia, like ViscousFlow.jl and WaterLily.jl, the field of usage is somewhat limited: As far as I understand, WaterLily works well only for low Reynolds numbers. Is there anybody else here on Discourse interested in an improved CFD solver, written in Julia?

Ideas:

Based on WaterLily.jl, add the feature to use octree grids. As far as I know, this might increase the range of usable Reynold numbers by one or two orders of magnitude

develop a RANS CFD solver

Could anybody point me to literature and/or software in other languages that could be used as a starting point for such a development?
