Fluid flow is one of the leading 1D CFD software packages used across various industry sectors for flow modelling. The course covers all functions of the software and provides practical suggestions for efficient workflow.
Using fluid flow engineer can very quickly analyse existing systems or develop new designs. The simplicity of the user interface and extensive library of materials, components and fluids allows for quick modelling with minimum setup time.
In the course we provide real life examples for students to work through. To strengthen the understanding of the subject the course covers the fundamentals of fluid flow and hand calculation techniques as well as several modelling exercises.
