This intensive 3-week training program is designed to equip participants with a comprehensive understanding of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The course will cover the fundamentals of fluid dynamics, mesh generation, and CFD simulation techniques, using industry-standard software such as ANSYS Fluent or OpenFOAM. By the end of the course, participants will have hands-on experience in performing simulations for real-world engineering problems related to fluid flow, heat transfer, and multiphase flows.
The course will consist of lectures, software tutorials, and practical assignments, ensuring a balance of theory and application.
Prerequisites:
To ensure participants can fully engage with the course content, the following prerequisites are recommended:
- Basic knowledge of Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics (undergraduate level)
- Familiarity with numerical methods (basic understanding of discretization, solving algebraic equations)
- Basic computer skills (ability to install and navigate simulation software)
- Engineering background (mechanical, aerospace, chemical, civil, or related disciplines)
Learning Outcomes:
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the principles of fluid dynamics and their numerical representations in CFD.
- Set up, solve, and interpret 2D and 3D CFD simulations for different flow regimes (laminar, turbulent, compressible, and incompressible).
- Use mesh generation techniques for accurate and efficient simulations.
- Analyze and visualize CFD results using post-processing tools.
- Apply CFD techniques to real-world engineering problems involving fluid flow, heat transfer, and multiphase interactions.
- Optimize simulation parameters to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of models.
