CFD analysis of backward facing step (BFS) and validation

🌬️ Master CFD Analysis of Backward Facing Step: A Comprehensive Validation & Verification Course

Course Overview:

In the field of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), validation and verification are pivotal for obtaining reliable results. This course, led by CFD expert Sijal Ahmed, delves into the intricacies of CFD analysis with a focus on validating simulations against experimental data for a Backward Facing Step (BFS) at a Reynolds number (Re) of 100 and an expansion ratio of 1.9423.

Key Course Highlights:

• Verification Assessment - Ensures the computational model's programming is error-free by comparing results with analytical solutions.
• Validation Assessment - Confirms that the simulation accurately represents physical reality by aligning outcomes with experimental data.
• Real-World Application - Utilizes well-known published experimental data for validation, enhancing your confidence in CFD simulations.
• Comprehensive Methodologies - Offers three distinct learning paths to master CFD analysis of BFS using industry-standard software: ICEMCFD & Fluent, ANSYS Workbench, and pre-messed geometries with Fluent standalone.

Course Content Breakdown:

**1. Professional CFD Analysis Using ICEMCFD & Fluent 🚀

• Complete problem explanation, including flow and fluid properties.
• Detailed analytical derivation of the velocity profile.
• Full control over hexahedral meshing in ICEMCFD.
• File management customization for professional CFD analysis.
• Learning tecplot for post-processing CFD results.
• Ideal for those who seek in-depth understanding and precision in their CFD work.

**2. Streamlined Workbench Approach 🔧

• Simplified geometry creation with Design Modeler.
• Meshing within Workbench Mesher.
• Conducting CFD simulations in Fluent, similar to section 1 but with less explanatory content.
• Automatic file transfer between software components.
• A good choice for those who prefer a straightforward, less hands-on meshing approach.

**3. Simplified Learning Path 🧐

• Follows a pre-created mesh and geometry.
• Minimalistic approach to explanations, focusing on the essentials.
• Utilizes Fluent standalone for solving cases.
• Best suited for learners who wish to bypass mesh and geometry creation processes.

Course Requirements:

• A fundamental understanding of CFD principles.
• Familiarity with fluid dynamics concepts is beneficial.
• For sections 2 & 3, access to ANSYS Student (ANSYS 2022 R1) is required; however, ICEMCFD is necessary for section 1.
