Introduction to CFD Analysis - Theory & Applications |
|
 |
 |
 |
Of equal importance is the manner in which results are interpreted. Advice is provided which allows the correct decisions to be taken, based on results which are known to be reliable. Interaction is encouraged throughout the course, with the planning and design of a complete CFD project and examples of simple hand calculations, mesh designs and solution designs being set for the class to complete. The course is completely code independent.
Who Should Attend
This course is aimed at practising engineers who wish to understand CFD methods and learn how to apply CFD techniques to their particular problems in the most effective manner. All aspects of successful CFD application are covered, including:
- The Finite Volume Method
- The computational mesh
- Turbulence
- Sources of error
- Interpretation of results
- Validation
Attendees should have a graduate engineering background including some knowledge of fluid dynamics and engineering mathematics
The material that is presented is independent of any particular software package, making it ideally suited to current and potential users of all commercial finite volume method CFD software systems. Anyone who wishes to use CFD in an industrial context would benefit from this course and it is a must for engineers who wish to use advanced CFD as an effective predictive tool for industrial flow analysis.
The course is open to both members and non-members of NAFEMS.
