Participants may receive a free 60-day evaluation of the software for which they are trained. This is a course for new and existing users of CFD analysis methods for the design of all types of turbomachinery. The emphasis is on helping designers to understand and get the best out of CFD tools. Particular emphasis is placed on the influence that parameters such as grid density and turbulence models have on the solution accuracy. The effects of blade row interaction and the techniques available for modeling such interactions are also discussed.
Extensive use is made of case studies drawn from a wide variety of applications.
