Fluent Europe Training - Dynamic Mesh Modelling

The length of the course is one day. Training is from 9.15am to 5.00pm. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

Prerequisites

This course assumes that the attendees have some understanding of fluid dynamics, heat transfer, turbulence and experience with FLUENT 6.

Learning Objectives

• Introduce the attendees to the field of moving & deforming Mesh
• Discuss issues related to in-cylinder modelling
