| The present
course entitled “Computational Fluid Dynamics and
its Applications” is oriented in introductory level
for field engineers and academicians. Computational Fluid
Dynamics (CFD) complements experimental and theoretical
fluid dynamics by providing an efficient means of simulating
fluid flows of practical interest. With rapid development
of computer technology and advancement in numerical analysis
and algorithms over the past few decades, CFD has found
application in variety of fields including Aerospace, Oceanography,
Meteorology, Naval, Surface transport, Chemical Processing,
Manufacturing Science, Thermal Engineering etc. Consequently,
appetite for learning the subject grows among engineering
practitioners belongs to Mechanical, Aerospace, Civil, Chemical
and other disciplines. The advancement in the numerical
analysis leads to the development of commercial softwares
such as FLUENT, NISA, CFX, PHOENICS etc. to model the CFD
problems relevant to industries. In the present course,
opportunities will be provided for establishing confidence
in using GAMBIT and FLUENT software. Prior to the exposure
and practice on these softwares, the training for the development
of the skill of solving non-linear governing equations along
with their appropriate boundary conditions will be imparted.
