SYEN 5384 - Computer Methods in Fluids and Heat Transfer

Three hours lecture. Three credit hours.

Modeling and simulation of thermal-fluid problems using commercial software,ANSYS Fluent. The topics will be discussed include: finite difference method, finite volume method, solution of discretized equations, solution algorithms for pressure-velocity coupling, turbulence models, uncertainly analysis in CFD modeling, methods for dealing with complex geometrics, heat transfer and unsteady flows

Prerequisites: SYEN 4374 or equivalent.
