- Introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool used by experts to predict the behaviour of any type of fluid (i.e.: liquids, gases, particulate solids, multiphase flow, etc.). Due to the rapid development of the computer capabilities, nowadays CFD is accessible to everyone that has the necessary knowledge, making this discipline very attractive and valuable.
Course Objectives
In this programme you will:
- Learn the basic principles of fluid dynamics
- Learn about the mathematical models that describe the fluid flow
- Learn about the discretisation techniques
- Understand the principles of meshing
- Understand how to choose between different physical models
- Use CFD software performing some simple CFD simulations
- Learn how to summarise and present CFD simulation results
Who Should Attend?
- CFD Modellers
- Design Engineers
- Aerospace Engineers
- Chemical Engineers
- Thermal Engineers
- Hydraulic Engineers
- Fire Engineers
- Environmental Engineers
- Specialists involved in the design of systems that transport fluids and energy, such as aircraft, turbines, cooling systems, chemical equipment, engines, piping, and pollution release models.
Course Outline
- Overview of different flow regimes: steady state vs. transient flow.
- Understanding compressible vs. incompressible flow.
- The concept of ideal and real gases in CFD.
- Introduction to fluid viscosity and its impact on flow behaviour.
- Heat transfer and its importance in fluid dynamics.
