Fluent Europe Training - Heat Transfer Modelling

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

Prerequisites

The course assumes you have previous experience of using FLUENT 6

Learning Objectives

By the end of this course you should be able to:

  • Understand the underlying physics that influence heat transfer modelling.
  • Understand the different options available for modelling heat transfer using FLUENT.
  • Be able to choose the correct modelling approach for your own simulations.
