Description:

This comprehensive, three-part series of courses will prepare you for a career in the rapidly expanding field of computational fluid dynamics and fluid turbulence. Completion of these three courses will give you the equivalent of one semester of undergraduate and two semesters of graduate work. The courses are supported extensively with textbooks, computer programs, and user manuals. You can use the computer programs to develop your own code, or you may modify the existing code for assigned applications. You will need access to a computer with a PC pentium processor, FORTRAN compiler, and graphics package for the software applications. A fundamental knowledge of computer programming and familiarity with a basic graphic package are required.

Key Topics

Improve you understanding of turbulence and turbulence models

Learn about the different categories of turbulence models, and the advantages and disadvantages of each category

Learn to develop numerical scheme for solution of turbulence models

Learn the fundamental aspects of large eddy simulation (LES) and direct numerical simulation (DNS)

Who Should Attend

This course is designed for engineers, scientists, and technical managers who are interested in learning the physics of turbulence, modeling of turbulence, and numerical schemes used for turbulent flows. The content of this course is equivalent to a one-semester course offered at the graduate level. A course in intermediate/advanced CFD and a course in fluid mechanics at upper division undergraduate or graduate level are required. Access to a high-end PC or, preferably, a workstation or mainframe computer, along with a FORTRAN compiler and graphics package, is necessary for applications.
