Entry requirements
Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
Prerequisites
Numercial Methods, Algebra, Calculus, Energy Technology basic course, and preferably Heat Transfer. Familiarity with MATLAB (or equivalent) is also desirable.Intended learning outcomes
The course aims to give a basic knowledge about simulation of fluid mechanical problems. After the course the student must be able to:
- Create models of flows and describe limitations of the model compared to the real case.
- Apply the finite volume model to discretize the governing equations of the flow.
- Implement numerical solvers (computer programs) for one- and two-dimensional flows.
- Use the implementations to analyse flow problems under different conditions.
- Analyse and value the results.
Course content
Basic fluid mechanics and its equations, Similarity, Problem formulation. Computational methods - an overview, the Finite volume method, Discretization, Boundary conditions, Transient problems, Turbulence and turbulence models.
Teaching and working methods
Teaching is in the form of lectures and computer sessions. The course includes a large amount of computer work. The examination consists of computer assignments, which are presented in reports.

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)
The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.
LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
