On-demand: CFD modelling with OpenFOAM (OD-25-3-121)


Description
Take sessions at any time, at your own pace with unlimited access for 30 days on sign up.

This on-demand training course provides all of the needed resources for building your first CFD model. You will have the opportunity to create simple simulations of three of the most common hydraulic structures that require 3D modelling: a spillway, a culvert, and a bridge pier.

Whilst 1D and 2D hydraulic models ignore vertical effects with depth-averaging, 3D CFD modelling allows interrogation of results that can be observed in the vertical water column. In addition, CFD modelling allows weir coefficients and other parameters to be computed rather than estimated.

This course covers the inherent assumptions in 3D models along with practical guidance for modelling hydraulic structures using CFD.
