Workshops for learning in computational fluid mechanics

Abstract

The must-do of teaching Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is the practical component. The main aim of the present paper is to propose test cases used in research. When these benchmarks are conveniently scaled-down and parameterized, students improve their understanding of the strong and weak points of the numerical models and gain an insight into the fluid dynamics processes learnt in the classroom. The goal is to prepare students who are new in this area to become self-sufficient in engineering practice.

Benchmarking for Practical Training in Computational Fluid Dynamics

“…The e-learning has been developed thanks to platform where ICT are easily implemented. (Parra, 2014b) uses the Moodle platform that is open source but needs the support of a team of informatics devoted to the proper configuration. Other option is Edmondo (Paliktzoglou 2014).…”
