Syllabus

The last two decades have seen the widespread use of Computational  Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for analysis and design of thermal-fluids systems  in a wide variety of engineering fields. Numerical methods used in CFD   have reached a high degree of sophistication and accuracy. The   objective of this course is to introduce the classical approaches and   algorithms used for the numerical simulations of incompressible flows.   In addition, some of the more recent developments are described,   in particular as they pertain to unstructured meshes and parallel   computers. An in-depth analysis of the procedures required to   certify numerical codes and results will conclude the course.
