Getting to know of students with the basics of computational fluid dynamics which are nessacary for solving of fluid flow problems by using of numerics methods.

Mastering of methods, procedures and processes in the field of computational fluid dynamics. Ability for solving of specific problems in the domain of computational fluid dynamics. Ability to critically and self-critical thinking and approach in solving of specific problems of computational fluid dynamics. Development of skills and ability necessary for solving of fluid flow problems by using of numerical methods. Students will further applied this acquired knowledge for using of software for numerical simulations of complex fluid flow problems. .

Basic principles of conservation, Lagrangian and Eulerian specification of the flow field, Reynolds transport theorem, conservation of mass, momentum and energy, general form of conservation equation. Introduction to and classification of partial differential equations. Fundamentals of discretization of partial differential equations by using of: finite element method, finite difference method and finite volume method. Implementation of boundary conditions. Discretization of partial differential equations for steady and unsteady state flow problems. Structured and unstructured grid. Discretization of diffusion equation, convection equation, convection-diffusion equation and Navier-Stocks equation. Introduction to fluid flow turbulence and turbulence models (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes - RANS, mixing length Model and k – e model). Iterative methods for numerical solution of system of linear algebraic equations.

Teaching is done with modern didactic means and methods, interactively in the form of lectures and computer exercises. In addition to lectures and exercises, consultations are also regularly held. The lectures present the theoretical part of the material accompanied by characteristic examples for easier understanding of the subject matter. Students use information and communication technologies during computer exercises in order to master knowledge and skills in the field of interest.
