The industry has started to introduce time-dependent
numerical simulation suchas large eddy simulation (LES),
unsteady RANS or hybrid approaches such as DES in their
development process. The advantage of these techniques is
much higher accuracy of the prediction compared with steady
RANS simulations but also possibility to replace costly
physical testing and simulate flow situations where
experiments are difficult or impossible. Although most
commercial (and open source) CFD software have option to run
unsteady methods, their usage requires knowledge in running
unsteady simulations which puts different requirements than
steady RANS on all steps of the process. Being resolving
techniques, these techniques put higher requirements on all
steps in the project, from the quality  of the computational
grids, numerical discretization, performing the CFD
simulation to analysis of large amount of data obtained from
a time-dependent simulation. 

 

This aim of this course is to equip an engineer or
researcher with the knowledge to run unsteady CFD
simulations for the application of his interest. 

We believe that the course is useful for engineers and
researcher in all industrial sectors where unsteady flows
are of importance. 
 

The course will cover three important applications of CFD
techniques in industry: prediction using unsteady CFD
simulations (LES, DES, PANS, URANS), CFD for flow control
and aerodynamic shape optimization.
