Brief Introduction
Fundamentals and First PrinciplesDescription
An introduction to the fundamentals of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that are used to solve complex fluid dynamics problems (weather prediction, aircraft flight, turbomachinery) by researchers, scientists and engineers around the world. The course starts from first principles and you will rapidly develop your first CFD solution using the Excel sheets and Python source code provided. By the end of the course, you will understand the importance of upwind differencing, Peclet number and mesh resolution. No prior experience is required and no specific CFD code/coding experience is required! You do not need ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, Star CCM or any other CFD to use this course.
Requirements
- Requirements
- Basic vector calculus (dot product, gradient, cross product)
- Basic differential equations
- Basic linear algebra (matrices)
- Microsoft Excel, Python or MATLAB
