Supervisor: | doc. Ing. Vojtěch Turek, Ph.D. | |||
Supervising institute: | ÚPI | |||
Teaching language: | Czech | |||
Aims of the course unit: | ||||
The objective of the course is to acquaint the students with the fundamentals, applications, advantages, disadvantages, and potential pitfalls of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). |
||||
Learning outcomes and competences: | ||||
The students will get essential knowledge in the computational modeling of fluid flow. While they master the basics of workflow with professional CFD tools within the ANSYS environment, the acquired knowledge applies to other CFD packages. Students will be self-sufficient in solving and analysis of fundamental fluid flow problems. The subject also provides a way to relate and deepen theoretical knowledge from other crucial process engineering disciplines. The acquired theoretical and practical knowledge may be extended in the specialized follow-up course “Practical applications of CFD (K20)”, which will prepare students to utilize CFD in engineering practice. |
||||
Prerequisites: | ||||
Basic knowledge from the Bachelor's studies. |
||||
Course contents: | ||||
The course focuses on modern computational methods for modeling fluid flow, which allow virtual testing of equipment and their parts under various conditions. The methods are widely used in industry due to the availability of hardware and specialized software. The students will be acquainted with the theoretical basics of the method and learn to solve practical tasks using the ANSYS environment. |
||||
Teaching methods and criteria: | ||||
The course is taught via seminars which are focused on acquiring general knowledge on computational modelling of fluid flow and its applications to specific problems from industial practice. Consultations of the projects that the students work on are also part of the seminars. |
||||
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes: | ||||
Credits are awarded to students who actively participated in the seminars and solved the projects that they had worked on during the semester. |
||||
Controlled participation in lessons: | ||||
Presence in the seminars is compulsory. Absences are compensated by individual study of the respective topics. |
