This six days course is designed for those who want to know basics of CFD and have a working knowledge of ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX. If your organization is using ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX combination for CFD simulations, this course will be mainly suitable for new recruits going to be deployed on CFD projects. This is also suitable for those organizations which are thinking about starting the CFD studies and want their engineers to be trained on CFD concepts and software.

Many times because of cost-effectiveness, companies outsource the CFD projects to service providers. One needs to have an understanding of CFD and commercial CFD software to interpret and analyze the results given by the service provider. Sometimes it is very hard to decide if CFD can be used for the  problem under study or not. This course is also suitable for those engineers who are acting as CFD project report evaluators.

This course is a perfect blend of CFD fundamentals, ICEM-CFD pre-processing and ANSYS CFX solver training. This is designed by considering very little or no knowledge of CFD, ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX.

After the training you can answer the questions like:

• How can I define the CFD problem ?

• What type of boundary conditions, solvers, discretization schemes need to be selected for problem under study ?

• How can I build my model in ICEM-CFD?

• How can I create blocking structure in ICEM-CFD?

• How can I create unstructured mesh in ICEM-CFD?

• How do I solve the problem using ANSYS CFX?

• How to do post-processing and extract the data needed for design changes?

• What are the strategies if my solution is not converging?

This is the course after which you can execute your CFD project using ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX

Who can attend this course ?

This course is suitable for CFD beginners in general and ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX beginners in particular.

This course is suitable for:

• New recruits in the CFD department

• Design engineers going to be deployed on CFD projects

• Design engineers involved in CFD project feasibility study and evaluations

• UG/PG students aspiring to do project using ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX

Course Objectives

The primary goal of this course is to introduce Computational Fluid Dynamics, ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX to the engineers. During the training, general governing equations will be discussed with the valid assumptions one can make to reduce the problem complexity. Overview of Finite Difference Method and Finite Volume Method, its pros and cons, stability and convergence issues will be given to know what happens "Behind the Screen". In-depth training on ICEM-CFD pre-processing tool  and ANSYS CFX solver will be given. This will give good idea to the engineer for solving real-world CFD problems from start to end. The practical sessions will be designed by considering the participant's need. By the end of training session, one will get modeling and solution strategy for his/her problem of interest.

Following will be the outcome of the course

• Thorough understanding of fluid mechanics and CFD concepts

• Good expertise of ICEM-CFD pre-processing tool

• Good expertise in ANSYS CFX solver tool

• Definite modeling strategy for your problem

• Necessary background to start your CFD project

Course Deliverables

• All lectures in printed format

• Access to the ICEM-CFD and ANSYS CFX manuals and tutorials

• Test cases/tutorials explicitly designed by considering your specific requirements

• Continuous guidance and support after the training session for CFD project execution
