    Build a strong conceptual foundation of computational fluid dynamics, its industry uses, and the full workflow—physics, numerics, and modeling—while emphasizing verification, validation, and best practices.

Requirements

  • Basic Knowledge of Fluid mechanics and Heat Transfer

Description

CFD is not just about running a solver — it is about understanding the physics, building clean meshes, choosing correct boundary conditions, and using numerics that produce stable, accurate results.

In this course, you will learn the core foundations of Computational Fluid Dynamics the way professionals use it in industry.


This is not a software-specific tutorial.

Instead, this course teaches you the fundamental concepts that apply to all CFD solvers — OpenFOAM, ANSYS Fluent, STAR-CCM+, COMSOL, or any other platform.


Whether you are a student, researcher, or practicing engineer, this course gives you the essential knowledge needed to build trustworthy CFD simulations.

All concepts are explained with simple illustrations, whiteboard sessions, and practical examples.

The teaching is software-independent, so you can apply the knowledge to any CFD tool.


Most CFD tutorials jump directly into software buttons.

This course teaches you the core principles behind every simulation —

the knowledge that actually matters when building stable, accurate CFD models.


You’ll learn how experienced CFD engineers think, set up, and validate simulations.


By the end of the course, you will be able to confidently set up CFD cases on your own with a solid understanding of the underlying physics and numerics. No prior CFD experience is required.

Who this course is for:

  • Students learning CFD for the first time
  • Researchers who want a solid foundation
  • Engineers using CFD for design, HVAC, automotive, aerospace, turbomachinery, or industrial applications
  • Anyone who wants to improve accuracy and reduce simulation guesswork
  • OpenFOAM or Fluent users who struggle with BCs, turbulence, or numerics
