  86641 - INDUSTRIAL FLUID-DYNAMICS ING-IND/08 6 6 CFU CARATTERIZZANTI Ingegneria Energetica e Nucleare
The course has two complementary objectives: first, to provide the conceptual, analytical and numerical bases of compressible flows prediction, in presence of turbulence, heat transfer and also chemical reactions and multiphase flows, typically found in energy-related industrial processes, second, to provide an overview, with practical training on the application of CFD software tools (Computational Fluid Dynamics) that are nowadays a fundamental industrial technology for product development. The main target of the course is to convey operational and critical skills to the student; the emphasis will be more centred on the correct methodological approach to perform a sound CFD analysis, even complex, as well as on a proper 'engineering' interpretation of results, in terms of their physical consistency, trends’ capturing and validation capability, rather than to provide students with competences related to turbulent Navier-Stokes equations’ numerical programming.
