UdemyComputational Fluid Dynamics is the engine behind weather prediction, aircraft design, and turbomachinery optimization. This course demystifies the approach by starting from first principles and having you build your first CFD solution using Excel sheets and provided Python code.
You'll develop working understanding of three concepts that separate good simulations from bad: upwind differencing, the Peclet number, and mesh resolution. The course requires no prior CFD software experience—you won't need ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, or Star CCM, just the willingness to work through the fundamentals.
By the end, you'll understand not just how to run a simulation, but why certain choices matter and how they affect your results.
An introduction to the fundamentals of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that are used to solve complex fluid dynamics problems (weather prediction, aircraft flight, turbomachinery) by researchers, scientists and engineers around the world. The course starts from first principles and you will rapidly develop your first CFD solution using the Excel sheets and Python source code provided. By the end of the course, you will understand the importance of upwind differencing, Peclet number and mesh resolution. No prior experience is required and no specific CFD code/coding experience is required! You do not need ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, Star CCM or any other CFD to use this course.
