Course detail
Computer Modelling II
FSI-IPM Acad. year: 2019/2020 Winter semester
The course consists of with theoretical and practical parts. The following topics are dealt with in the theoretical part: Modelling of turbulence. Time-averaged fluid flow. Turbulent diffusivity (viscosity & thermal conductivity), appropriate models. Advanced turbulence models. Two-phase flow modelling using the PSICT-method. Modelling of thermal & solar radiation. The following topics are dealt with in the practical part:: Solution of complex fluid flow & heat transfer problems using the Star-CD CFD-code (3-D problems, thermal & solar radiation, 2-phase flow, combustion).

Prerequisites
Theoretical basis of heat transfer, thermo mechanics and fluid mechanics. Fundamentals of computational modelling of fluid flow and heat transfer (discretization methods, transient solution, convective-diffusion problems, algorithms).
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
The course is taught through lectures explaining the basic principles and theory of the discipline. Exercises are focused on practical topics presented in lectures.
Assesment methods and criteria linked to learning outcomes
The graded course-unit credit awarding is based on the results of the semester project.
Aims
The course objective is to extend theoretical and practical knowledge and computational modelling of fluid flow and heat transfer expertise with regard to their potential use in the diploma thesis .
