Explanation
A Complete Introduction to Computational Modeling OpenFOAM is already central to modern engineering and industry as the demand for skilled professionals is constantly increasing over time. Unfortunately software suitable for these roles often costs tens of thousands of dollars to license and/or is prohibitive to learn and implement. Being open source and used by many active companies today, OpenFOAM is an excellent way to learn these methods and improve your ability to solve engineering problems. While it is designed in a way that makes it very flexible and convenient for creating your own projects, learning OpenFOAM without help can be a daunting prospect. The purpose of this course is to provide a simple and straightforward introduction to OpenFOAM covering common bugs and errors so that you can easily navigate the initial learning curve at your own pace.
Although the lessons learned here can be applied to any OpenFOAM opener (of which there are many), the focus is on complex mechanics as the implementation is usually much easier for popular applications (high speed, etc.). Furthermore, since solid mechanics is essential to most engineering disciplines even if it is not the primary interest of the discipline (aerospaces around the interface between solids and fluids for example), solid mechanics is a fundamental skill. An excellent and necessary overview for a healthy understanding of fluid dynamics of all types. The course is not a substitute for an aerospace engineering degree or professional advice, by purchasing this course you agree that the course instructor is not responsible for any disputes, claims, losses, injuries, or damages of any kind that may arise from or related to the content of this course or any relationship that supports the instructor and student.
What will you learn?
- Understand the basic requirements for modeling OpenFOAM calculations
- Be able to take any tutorial file into OpenFOAM, set up the case yourself and use the geometry and parameters of your choice. Although we cannot cover most solvers, you should be able to explore specific solvers yourself and learn on your own.
- Create meshes and set parameters/initial conditions suitable for OpenFOAM
- Be able to use FOAM-Extend’s robust solving mechanics library.
- Understand the fundamentals of constant/time dependence of Linear Equilibrium, Thermal Conductivity, Fracture and Plasticity for use in Aerospace, Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering applications.
Who is this course for?
- Beginning engineers looking to learn the full power of computational modeling but frustrated by the often incomprehensible content available online.
- Researchers and professionals looking for a simple and accessible introduction to get OpenFOAM to work.
A Complete Introduction to OpenFOAM
- Publisher: Udemy
- Teacher: Philip Baldock
- Language : English
- Level: Beginner
- Number of courses: 83
- Duration: 5 hours and 40 minutes
Content as of 6/2021
Requirements
- Basic geometry and engineering skills
- Love science and engineering
- CFD is essentially a way to solve calculus problems without actually doing the calculations – understanding the meaning of differential equations is useful but you don’t need to solve them on a whiteboard.
- Linux installation or emulation is not essential but it greatly simplifies the use of OpenFOAM so this course uses the terminal extensively. That said, no previous Linux experience is necessary, all Bash scripts are provided in the course.
