You will have 15 minutes for the presentation of your project, and then another 15 minutes with questioning.
The exam will be held on Wednesday 14/12 in room 919, and a more detailed schedule will be posted on Tuesday 13/12.
For the presentation, you have 15 minutes for the final project followed by 15 minutes of questions from the syllabus. Power-point, Keynote, PDF or anything else that works is ok. I will have a Mac hooked up and you can either send me the presentation, bring a usb or your own laptop.
The presentation should start with a project description. It is difficult to give general advice, but briefly it is your responsibility to make the presentation as clear and concise for the external sensor as possible. Emphasise what you have done, both why and how you have done it the way that you have. Explain the results. Model sensitivity, mesh sensitivity and sensitivity of numerical methods are relevant topics for most projects.
The final exam will be held week 50. Preliminary date is set to Tuesday 13/12-2022. Please let me know as soon as possible if this day is problematic for you. Exact times for each student will come the day before the exam.
This week you should work on the CFD project. I will be available for assistance in my office from 14-16 on both Monday and Tuesday.
The last part of this course is a CFD project. You need to decide on a, preferably relevant, project, and present to me a project description of maximum two pages. The project description should be ready by 29/10 the latest.
The project description should contain enough information about your project that an external examiner can read it and clearly understand what you want to do. Describe the physical domain and the equations that are to be solved. Describe the numerical methods to be used. And describe what it is that you are trying to do. A typical project is to run simulations for some benchmark case and compare different numerical methods to each other, and to experimental data (if they exist). In that case it is important to give proper reference to such data.
My notes in MEK4300
Turbulence is not really syllabus for this course, but a required background. Still, some useful references are
- Chapter 3 in the CFD book
- http://www.turbulence-online.com/Publications/Lecture_Notes/Turbulence_Lille/TB_16January2013.pdf
- https://github.com/OpenFOAM/OpenFOAM-dev/tree/master/src/MomentumTransportModels/incompressible/RAS
I don't expect you to read all these references, they are just ment to help. Note that the openfoam source code contains important references for the turbulence models that are implemented. For example, the k-epsilon model implements a version given by references in the header file.
The mandatory assignment can be found here. Note that if you have done a good job with the weekly assignments, then the first task should be easy. The part involving turbulence models you should probably postpone til after the lecture next week.
on time dependent Navier-Stokes equations can be found here.
Implement a numerical solver for examples 4.2 and 4.3 in the CFD book.
Hi
Welcome to this course on Computational Fluid Dynamics! We will start next week with chapter 4 of our syllabus, `An introduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics - the finite volume method`. This fall we will use Mondays for lectures and Tuesdays for exercises. In the first few weeks we will only do relatively simple exercises of one-dimensional problems using (preferably) Python for programming. After a while we will turn to more complicated real problems, real geometries and real CFD!
Looking forward to see you on Monday!
