Computational Fluid Dynamics, Advanced Course

Aim

The course aims to give advance theoretical and practical knowledge on CFD analysis of fluid flow problems. After the course, the student should be able to:

• Understand the detailed steps for numerically solving realistic laminar flow problems using the finite volume method and explain the underlying theoretical assumptions
• Perform reliable transient CFD analysis of simpler turbulent flow cases using modern practice guidelines
• Understand the underlying principles and the associated limitations of commonly used scale-resolving CFD simulation methods
• Identify and analyze relevant CFD results using different post-processing techniques, and compare results against relevant theory and open literature with a critical mindset
• Present the work in a clear, informative and scientific way

Content

Governing equations and discretization, turbulence och turbulence models, scale-resolving simulations, implementation of a 2D solver and use of commercial solver.
