Course Overview
- This course helps you understand the fundamentals and numerical aspects of CFD.
- The course is designed to help students understand the general solution approach to the Navier-Stokes equations.
- Students will write code in MATLAB to solve simplified NS equations concentrating on one phenomenon at a time (Convection and Diffusion).
- In the latter part of the course, students will work on OpenFOAM simulating standard CFD problems which gives them hands-on experience.
- By the end of this course, students would have built strong CFD fundamentals to venture into solving more complicated CFD problems.
