The Summer School is in two parts, which can be taken separately:

• Course 1 (June 20-24th): Foundation Course
• Courses 2 (June 27-29th): Advanced Topic Day Courses (Turbulence, multiphase, combustion, CPI)

The Summer School is open to students, academics and professionals and we are already in receipt of applications from all backgrounds. There will be a numerus clausus of 30-35 participants and we will aim to have 2/3 lectures, 1/3 practicals and seminars. Full-time registered students are eligible for discounts, in particular EPSRC-funded students. The advertised prices are all inclusive, but the courses can be offered w/out accomodation.

In the extreme environments of both Malaysia and Australia, maintaining the brakes at the correct operating temperature was a critical part of the Renault F1's winning performance. For each race, the choice of cooling strategy was based upon months of fine-tuning through STAR-CD simulation at the Renault F1 Team’s Enstone headquarters, and represents the best compromise between effective cooling and the aerodynamic penalty for the car.

Built from the ground up for design engineers and multi-tasking mechanical engineers, CFdesign is a dramatically different technology than Traditional CFD which requires highly specialized skill sets and dedicated usage.

Demonstrations of CFdesign v7 for Catia v5 will be given continuously at COE 2005.

As the use of CFD becomes increasingly widespread around the globe, Fluent recognized five specific applications of CFD technology that best exemplify the important role it plays in engineering. The five winners were selected by a panel of CFD experts who reviewed over 100 studies and papers from dozens of countries around the world.

The seminar gives attendees the chance to learn how CFD technology can help to:

• Identify the location of hot spots
• Optimise cabinet layouts and floor grilles
• Predict supply air short-circuiting to help in understanding overheating problems, critical cooling failure scenarios and to predict future cooling requirements.

Fluent’s multiphase modelling provides detailed information on the complex behaviour of fluid flows associated with applications including mixing and separation. The seminar offers the opportunity to discuss your modelling requirements with Fluent’s multiphase experts, and DEM Solutions, who will be outlining their discrete element modelling technology for the simulation and analysis of particle handling and manufacturing operations.
