ESI OpenFOAM® Advanced Course
|
This course covers advanced topics on the open source CFD
toolbox,
OpenFOAM. It is designed to enable the participants to use
OpenFOAM
effectively on real engineering problems and develop the
toolbox to suit
their needs. It covers general use and programming of
OpenFOAM, building
on topics presented earlier in the Foundation Course.

Course details
Running OpenFOAM
Participants undertake exercises in simulating cases and
programming in OpenFOAM using ESI’s Cloud-based HPC
computing platform, accessed via a secure ssh connection
between desktop PCs (provided) or participants laptops,
applicable to all operating systems. All work from the
training will be stored on the cloud and participants may
download all the work and exercises on their USB flash
drives at the end of the training.
Course materials
A high-quality, A5-sized (80-100 page) wire-bound manual
is provided with each course that participants can use
during the course and can later work through in their own
time.
Language
The language used in all OpenFOAM courses is English.
Translations or delivery in French, German, Italian,
Spanish, Chinese, Japanese and Korean languages are
available on request.
Course times
The course is 2 days in duration and usually runs from
09.00 to 17.30 (local time) each day.
Target audience
This course is for those users with a broad basic
knowledge of OpenFOAM, either from the Foundation Course
or through general experience, who wish to develop their
skills for more advanced CFD and OpenFOAM programming —
see “information on course suitability” for further
details.
Prerequisites
This course follows on from the Foundation Course in
OpenFOAM, which introduces the use of OpenFOAM, Linux, C++
programming, the finite volume method, etc. We recommend
users undertake the OpenFOAM Foundation Course prior to
this course, but it is not essential for more experienced
OpenFOAM users.
