About the Course

If you’re reading this, you’re likely interested in exploring applied computational fluid dynamics (CFD) using the Simcenter STAR-CCM+ software or another CFD tool. This course can be a first step in improving your job performance and furthering your career or educational trajectory. We’ve created this course to help you use the knowledge of flow physics and computational fluid dynamics to obtain quality solutions of flow and heat transfer problems most efficiently. This course is not about instructions on how to use a particular software. Simcenter STAR-CCM+ was used exclusively for all simulations presented in this course. Still, the learning outcomes would be the same if another public or commercial software were used, as long as it has the same capabilities....

There is nothing related to what the title of the course states. Basically the author is 'reading' some pictures of the results extracted for certain simulations without paying attention to any detail on the real application of the CFD knowledge. One is expecting some theoretical and PRACTICAL build-up towards a good/realistic result but the author just presents the initial conditions of a testcase simulation and goes straight to READ (yes, he is reading what he has to say, a very forced situation and no desire to teach feeling) the output data of the simulation (very nice colors and graphs to be said). After that, he describes what can everyone see in the figures but no explanation for the real physical phenomena.

I was expecting a deep teaching of why and how certain parameters of the CFD simulation were chosen (e.g. y+, boundary conditions, far-field boundary interference, mesh optimization, build informative graphs, etc.) and, nothing about that.

The course can be simplified as: 'we have this geometry, thiese are the fluid initial conditions, prism layers here and there and the results are these, we obtain a value of y+ = X and this is how the fluid is moving, thanks for the attention.'

This course can be defined as 'Reading some graphs just because', nothing about real CFD. VERY DISAPPOINTED that Siemens, with the great software they have with STAR CCM+, allows this to represent them.

A very good course with very detail explainations. I am working my thesis for CFD around two opposed curved buildings and this helps me on how to use best setting using what flow mode. Not only that, this course also offers a lot more analysis that can be learn to improve the fundamentals and understanding.

I recently had the pleasure of taking the Applied Computational Fluid Dynamics course on Coursera, and I must say it exceeded all my expectations. As an engineering enthusiast with a keen interest in fluid dynamics, this course provided me with an excellent opportunity to expand my knowledge and practical skills in the field.

The course structure was well-organized and logically presented, ensuring a smooth learning experience. The instructors were highly knowledgeable and passionate about the subject, and their expertise truly shone through their engaging lectures. The content was comprehensive, covering a wide range of topics from the fundamentals of fluid dynamics to advanced techniques used in computational simulations.

One of the aspects that truly impressed me was the hands-on approach the course took. Throughout the modules, we were given access to industry-standard software tools and encouraged to apply what we learned to solve real-world problems. The practical assignments and projects allowed me to gain valuable experience in modeling and simulating fluid flows, providing me with a solid foundation in the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

In conclusion, this course is an exceptional resource for anyone looking to dive deep into the fascinating world of computational fluid dynamics. With its well-structured curriculum, experienced instructors, practical exercises, and supportive community, it offers a comprehensive and rewarding learning experience. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have taken this course and wholeheartedly recommend it to others with a passion for fluid dynamics.

The Applied Computational Fluid Dynamics course is exceptionally well-designed, offering a perfect balance of theoretical knowledge and practical application. The course thoroughly covers fundamental concepts of CFD, while providing ample opportunities for hands-on learning with computational techniques. The content is structured to cater to learners at various levels, gradually advancing from foundational concepts to more complex simulations and numerical methods. One of the course's strongest features is its emphasis on real-world applications. The instructors ensure that each concept is reinforced through practical case studies in areas such as aerodynamics, turbomachinery, and environmental flows. The combination of lectures, tutorials, and assignments creates a comprehensive learning experience, allowing students to apply fluid dynamics concepts to real-world engineering challenges. Additionally, the course introduces advanced topics such as turbulence modeling, multiphase flows, and mesh generation, making it especially valuable for students and professionals in fields like aerospace, civil, and mechanical engineering. The exposure to modern computational tools and techniques equips learners with the skills necessary to thrive in today's demanding engineering environments.

This is benificial because this course fill the gap between Finite element method and computational application which is finite element analysis through simulation.theoretical parts consist of fluid flow and heat transfer is reminded and analysed as well as computational related concepts like models of calculation,discretization is also mentioned in here through focusing on simulation setup condition.this knowledge could lead to perform a accurate engineering simulation using a given FEA simulation software.
