To celebrate Christmas, we have a special on our OpenFOAM courses!

Until December 31st, you can purchase both our "OPENFOAM COURSE" and our "OPENFOAM ADVANCED MESHING AND MOTION COURSE" for only $89.00, which means you get two courses for the price of just one!

Merry Christmas!

OpenFOAm Course

OpenFOAM is a completely free CFD software, and it's VERY powerful!

BUT, it's really hard to learn, which is why most never do. Leaving them stuck paying $10,000's for licenses every year!

Our course makes learning OpenFOAM easy, taking you step-by-step through the process, from literally how to install OpenFOAM, all the way to running your own industry-grade DES simulations. This allows you to use as many cells as you like in your mesh, whatever solver, any timesteps, and a whole range of other parameters that would otherwise be out of reach.

We cover:

• What OpenFOAM is

• How to install it

• Geometry importation

• Domain generation

• Domain Meshing

• Boundary Layer Meshing

• Mesh Refinement

• Solver Setting

• RANS (Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes)
• URANS (Unsteady Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes)
• DES (Detached Eddy Simulation)
• Selecting different turbulence models, like K-Omega, K-Epsilon, SST, K-Omega SST, Spalart Allmaras
• Selecting appropriate Timesteps
• Adjusting the Courant number
• Changing the relaxation factors
• How to save data from each iteration, and how often you save it (to later postprocess)
• How to postprocess your data to get informative and great looking images

We go through 12 CFD simulations, ranging from RANS to DES, with you and that you can follow along, step-by-step, to ensure you learn how to OpenFOAM!

AND we give you the Master files so you can copy and paste them for your simulations!

Reviews

"I love the way you explain how to use OpenFoam. It makes it really easy" - Tobi R. Germany

"This course was great. It was the third one I have taken from you." - Annika G. South Africa

"The docs and files you provide helped me get running CFD in OpenFOAM quickly. TYSM." - James K., USA

OpenFOAm Advanced meshing and motion Course

OpenFOAM is a very powerful CFD tool.

This course unlocks it potential to simulate motion. With this course you can simulate the motion found on cars, in airplane turbojets and turbofans, when two objects change position relative to each other, and even when structures deform.

This course covers the following advanced meshing and motion simulation topics:

• How to find the bad cells in your mesh and fix them

• How to monitor the residuals and convergence in real time

• How to initialize your simulation to make it converge faster

• Rotating Wall Simulations

• MRF Simulations

• Sliding Mesh Simulations

• Dynamically Morphing Meshes

• Overset Meshes

• How to make your simulations run faster

• Fluid-Structure Interactions

We go through 8 CFD simulations, showing you how to prescribe any motion you need, from linear, to rotation, to even oscillations, AND we give you the Master files so you can copy and paste them for whatever simulations you need!

Reviews

"I've taken multiple CFD courses from university-led modules to youtube series and I can honestly say this one was by far the best explained!" - Max S., U.K.

"You covered so much in this course. I feel like I really understand all these different meshes really well now." - Andrew B., Australia

"So useful. It has been so easy to use the master files for my own dynamic mesh sims. Thanks!" - Jacob C., USA

CFD Beginner Course

If you're just starting out with CFD, or want to brush-up on your basics, take this course. In it, we cover:

• What CFD is

• How to do a CFD simulation

• Popular and FREE commerical solvers

• How to mesh properly

• Which solver settings to select

• Tips and tricks to help your simulations solve faster

You will also run your own simulation! By the end of this course, you will be ready to tackle any normal CFD problem!

CFD INTERMEDIATE Course

If you want to learn how to do high quality simulations so you can go straight into industry and accel, this is the course for you. It covers in detail:

• RANS vs. DES vs. LES, the accuracy of each one, when to use each one, how to use each one, and examples of each that you can follow!

• Turbulence models like SST and K-Omega, what they are, when to use each one, and why.

• How to make a high quality boundary mesh, including a simple equation to ensure the right resolution without wasting cells!

• Parameters you can use to tell if your mesh is high qualtiy, and how to use these parameters to make it better.

• How to do a proper mesh convergence study, why it is important to do one, and how to use the information to know when you can trust your CFD.

• Validating your CFD and one simple trick to make your CFD more accurate.

• Transient simulations, how to do them, how to determine what timestep to use, how long to run it for, and real examples you can follow!

• How to simulate rotating geometries, including three different ways, AND a real example you can follow!

You will also receive a certificate of completion that you can use to make yourself more attractive to potential employers and increase your chances of getting hired!

Theory Beginner Course

If you want to cover the basics of Aerodynamics, take this course. In it, we cover:

• The basic properties of air and aerodynamics

• What the Reynolds number really means and how to use it effectively - something most people never learn

• Laminar, Transitional, and Turbulent flows, and how transition occurs

• What the Static Pressure, Dynamic Pressure, and Total Pressure are, and how to use them

• Wind Tunnel Design

• Turbulence Intensity and how it affects your Aerodynamics

• CFD - what it is, why it's used, and how it fits into the larger Aerodynamics picture

• What Drag is and how wakes break down

• What lift is and how it is produced

By the end of this course, you will know all the basics of Aerodynamics properly. You will be ready to do normal Aerodynamic analyses and be ready to move to the next step in your Aerodynamics knowledge.
