Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students are able to solve, evaluate and analyse simple problems in fluid dynamics numerically using Ansys Fluent.
Skills Knowledge
Specifically, they can

  • solve basic fluid dynamics and heat transfer problems using the Finite Volume Method (K6)
  • generate numerical meshes for CFD problems (K5)
  • prescribe adequate boundary conditions (K5)
  • understand the differences between common turbulence models and apply them accordingly (K5)
  • perform post-processing of CFD simulations (K5)
  • independently work on a small CFD-project (K6)
  • fundamentals of numerical simulation of fluid flows using the Finite Volume method (Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD)
  • working with the software-package FLUENT/ICEM
  • generation of tetrahedral- and hexahedral-meshes
  • practising the use of FLUENT/ICEM by means of standardised examples
  • elaboration on an individual project
Criteria for evaluation Homework, evaluation of a final project
Methods Guided tutorial examples, independent project
