Computational Fluid Dynamics 1 (CFD1) [SerienID : 4346]
This course deals with a basic introduction to the numerical simulation of fluid flow, i.e., how to obtain a numerical solution to a fluid flow problem, how to discretize the underlying equations and how to evaluate the result.
Content:
  • Governing equations and models in fluid mechanics
  • The Finite-Difference Method (FDM)
  • Unsteady problems: methods of time integration
  • The Finite-Volume Method
  • Solution of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations
  • Grids and their properties
  • Boundary conditions
  • Compressible Flows
The students who successfully take this module should:
  • understand the physical meaning and mathematical character of the terms in advection-diffusion equations and the Navier-Stokes equations
  • assess under what circumstances some terms in these equations can be negelcted
  • formulate a FDM for the solution of unsteady transport equations
  • asess the convergence, consistency and stability of a FDM
  • formulate a FVM for the solution of unsteady transport equations
  • know how to solve the Navier-Stokes equation with the FVM
  • implemement programs in matlab/octave to simulate fluid flow
  • assess the quality and validity of a fluid flow simulation
  • work in team and write a report describing the results and significance of a simulation
  • know the different types of grids and when to use them
