Course detail
CFD Modelling I
FSI-K10Acad. year: 2017/2018
The course provides basic knowledge base for future users of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software tools. Students will get acquainted with the basics of fluid dynamics and methods used in software tools for numerical simulation of fluid flows. Within a semestrial project students will acquire basic skills in the work with computational software ANSYS Fluent (namely creation of geometry, meshing, solving and postprocessing of results).
