AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The course is aimed at presenting current CFD methods for fluid-machinery and industrial applications. The student will learn the basic numerical tecniques that form the backbone of commercial packages for CFD applications and will develop a critical attitude toward the use of the above technology, already widely used in industry for product design and development. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES Participation to lessons (theoretical or practical applications) and the individual learning efforts will allow the student to: - know the main numerical approaches to computational fluid dynamics - distinguish the different mesh types and select the most appropriate for a given application - check the quality and reliability of a CFD solution - perform a critical analysis of numerical applications for fluid machinery or industrial components - perform numerical simulations using commercial software platforms - identify the most appropriate approach for a design optimization problem - set up a procedure for design optimization TEACHING METHODS Lectures and practical applications using software platform widely used in industry SYLLABUS/CONTENT The course is organised with the following topics: governing equations and boundary conditions; discretisation methods and numerical schemes; CFD techniques for compressible and incompressible flows; introduction to turbulence modeling; grid generation methods; complex flow models (reactive, multicomponent, multiphase flows); introduction to design optimization and response surface methods CFD applications to fluid machinery analysis; CFD applications to industrial flow problems.
