EP8403 - Advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics

Course content

The emphasis is on computational methods for practical fluid flow problems. Although not specifically dealt with in the course, the methods to be presented are readily generalized to handle the accompanying heat and mass transfer problems. Methods for inviscid, viscous and turbulent flow regimes are presented, and the methods are equally applicable to two and three-dimensional flow configurations.

Learning outcome

The aim of the course is to familiarize the participants with a selection of advanced topics in CFD. The essential knowledge necessary to understand and apply these modern and yet practical computational methods will be provided.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures, exercises and simulation problems.
