Introduction to CFD using MATLAB and OpenFOAM : Skill-Lync

Fluids are essential to our existence. Fluids are essential for survival and living. It is therefore essential to understand the fluids and be able predict/simulate their behavior under certain circumstances. This will allow us to make these fluids work for our benefit. CFD is a tool that can help us understand how fluids behave under certain circumstances. CFD can be used to simulate fluid behaviour using modern computing capabilities.

This course will teach you OpenFOAM and MATLAB. MATLAB is an interactive programming platform for scientific computing. OpenFOAM, a popular open-source software program for Computational Fluid Dynamics, is well-known. This course is in the CFD domain. The students/professionals who want to establish a career in simulating/studying how a fluid interacts with different mechanical systems and finding ways to optimize the system can take up this course. CFD is used in a variety of areas, including Aerospace, Construction, Power and Energy and Turbo-machinery.

This course will give you the foundational knowledge of CFD and how it can help optimize a mechanical system. Through solving CFD problems, you will also gain a working knowledge.

Our reliance on computers is increasing as our machines become more sophisticated every day. Many industries are now using CFD. Advanced computing capabilities are solving problems that were previously impossible. CFD will be the preferred method of testing in the future as technology becomes more affordable. This will lead to a significant increase in its usage. CFD's future job prospects are bright.
