Computational Fluid Dynamics - MECH70015
Aims
The Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) module deals with the governing equations for heat and fluid flow problems and with the numerical methods that cover domain and equation discretisation, including sources and sinks, with the main focus on the finite volume approach. Topics include numerical schemes for steady and unsteady diffusion and convection problems, pressure correction algorithms, iteration and convergence, errors and accuracy, benefits and limitations. Overview of commercial CFD packages and their applications is also provided.
