What is the Workshop about?

Computational Fluid Dynamics is the area of engineering that deals with the numerical
simulation and analysis of fluid flows encountered by an engineer (mechanical, automobile,
aeronautical, civil, environmental and so on) daily in multitude of circumstances. CFD is a very
robust technique that finds wide applications in various industry sectors. There is an immense
need for engineers, who understand and can apply the techniques of CFD to solve a variety of
design, analysis and optimisation problems. This course on Basics of CFD certified by Altair
Engineering is a peek into this highly demanding field and will be a door to the numerous
opportunities for engineers.
