Training series on CFD for HPC systems

Registration for all or individual sessions is done by sending an email with the courses you would like to attend

In this course, the basics of Lagrangian point particle methods for the application on HPC systems are covered. The course consists of an introduction to the applied method, followed by a hands-on exercise using the in-house simulation framework m-AIA. The topics covered are spherical and non-spherical particles and the efficient implementation of point particle methods for the use in HPC. The course will be held in person at the Chair of Fluid Mechanics and Institute of Aerodynamics at RWTH Aachen University in Aachen. The presentations will also be streamed online.

In this course, we cover the main building blocks to solve fluid flow problems using the Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method. The course consists of a combination of presentations and hands-on exercises in which a simple DG flow solver is implemented and run on some test cases within our open-source code framework BoSSS.

In this course, we cover various techniques to solve fluid flow problems using the finite element method. The course consists of a combination of presentations and hands-on coding exercises in which the various techniques are discussed and implemented within a basic finite element solver using Matlab.

In this course, the introduction to the structural properties of various turbulence modeling concepts (RANS, LES, and Hybrid RANS/LES) including associated equations will be given. In addition to the presentation, the corresponding computational setup including pre-processing, simulation implementation, and post-processing for some illustrative flow configurations will be provided based on the open-source CFD software OpenFOAM.
