The course aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to computer associated engineering (CAE) in modelling thermal and fluid flow systems modeling for mechanical engineering senior year students. Different flow and heat transfer phenomena are covered in terms of engineering software, accordingly selected for the scope of the course.
Principals of Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics in the context of Finite Elements Method (FEM) and Finite Volume Method (FVM). Discretization methods for engineering systems modeling. Physics modules for engineering problems. Model pre- and post-processing with popular applications in the field of mechanical engineering.

| 1. | To develop skills of defining engineering problems, defining system boundaries and their conditions, and physical system simplification for theoretical analyses. |
| 2. | To learn and understand the CAE software interfaces and building blocks/procedures. |
| 3. | To gain the ability to parametrically modeling 2D and 3D engineering problems under steady-state and transient conditions. |
| 4. | To develop computational models for stand-alone and in-line thermal and/or fluid equipment such as turbines, compressors, pumps, hydrocyclones, and fluidized and spouted bed reactors. |
| 5. | Evaluation of the performance of thermal systems under various design and working conditions, both quantitatively and qualitatively. |
