About the course
Course content
Theoretical background. Mass and momentum conservation, energy conservation. Governing equations, potential flows, viscous flows, incompressible and compressible flows
General boundary conditions
Basic discretization techniques. FDM, FVM, FEM, structured and unstructured grids
Analysis of numerical schemes. Stability and error analysis
The resolution of numerical schemes. Steady and unsteady problems
Inviscid and viscous flows
Laminar and turbulent flows
Introduction and training in the use of a CFD program package (STAR CCM+)
Applications. Internal flows, (channel or tunnel flows), External flows /stationary objects moving objects), Flows around rotating objects (fans, propellers), Free surface flows (sloshing in tanks, Ship flows)
Learning outcome
Læringsutbytte - Kunnskap:
After having passed the exam of the subject the student should know the methodology and main principles of computational fluid dynamics: general equations, methods of solutions, characteristics of different mesh types, turbulence models.
Læringsutbytte - Ferdigheter:
The student should be able to carry out any flow simulation using necessary guides and books as well as understand and interpret the results.
Læringsutbytte - Kompetanse:
The student can simulate any case independently and master terminology of the field as well as analyze relevant academic, professional and research solution of a flow.
Learning methods and activities
Pedagogiske metoder:
Class room lectures, homework and assignments.
Obligatoriske arbeidskrav:
2/3 of the assignments must be approved.
Compulsory assignments
- Mandatory assignment
Further on evaluation
Individual portfolio of mandatory projects (40%)
Oral examination at the end of semester (60%).
Minimum requirement for approval must be obtained for both the project work and the exam.The final evaluation of the candidate will be partly based on the project assignment work and partly on the oral examination Re-sit examination:Students are entitled to re-sit the oral exam if they have legitimate reasons for absence, or have failed.If students fail the assignment portfolio, they have to retake it during the next ordinary examination semester.
