Synopsis of Course Contents This course gives you an introduction to computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) modeling technology for fluid mechanic related applications. It will
also give you a proper background for the intelligent and appropriate use of
commercial CFD packages. At the end of the course you will understand
the process of developing a geometrical model of the flow, applying appro-
priate boundary conditions, specifying solution parameters, and visualizing
and analysing the results. Through the course study, you will also become
conscious of the limitations of CFD and develop an appreciation for the
factors limiting the accuracy of CFD solutions.
