Description
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been successfully used in innovative design, trouble-shooting, optimization of technologies and facilities in numerous areas. This advanced CFD course will provide a familiarity with and an in-depth understanding of the following topics and issues:
During each of the four days, lectures will be combined with demos and hands-on sessions, in order to achieve the above objectives.

Programme
- Fundamentals of CFD (intro to CFD; the finite volume method for various steady and unsteady problems; different spatial and temporal discretization schemes, their formulation, assessment and applicability)
- Multiphase flow modeling (different methods for multiphase flow modeling such as Lagrangian method, Eulerian method, mixture & volume of fluid approach; modeling multiphase flow in porous media)
- RANS turbulence modeling (SIMPLE algorithm for pressure-velocity coupling; fundamentals of turbulence; different isotropic eddy viscosity models; near-wall modeling; meshing impact and strategies)
- Turbulent combustion modeling and user-defined functions (combustion analysis tools; species transport/eddy dissipation or EDC; mixture fraction/PDF; fundamentals & examples of user-defined functions)
Prerequisites
Basic knowledge in fluid flow, turbulence, multiphase, combustion, programming
Form of evaluation
Finish one of the following mini-projects and submit the mini-project report.
- Numerically solve a general transport equation using the finite volume method and the key results; or
- Modeling of a turbulent flow using a commercial CFD code both by the default software and by developing and integrating user-defined functions.
Price
8000 DKK for the Industry and 6000 DKK for PhD students outside of Denmark (VAT-FREE Education)
The Danish universities have entered into an agreement that allows PhD students at a Danish university (except Copenhagen Business School) the opportunity to free of charge take a subject-specific course at another Danish university.
