This course provides a working understanding of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and an overview of best practices. It is designed to provide the engineer with basic knowledge to apply CFD, identify and solve real life applications.

This course creates an awareness of the potentials and limitations of this technology. The engineer will be exposed to a wide range of applications and the course offers high benefits to those who have little or no exposure to CFD. Additionally, this course offers engineers involved in CFD an opportunity to sample the wide range of applications that can be solved using CFD methods.
