Seminar 33 -- Basics of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for the Built Environment PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker (recorded presentation), PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3) as noted.

With increased emphasis on high performance and energy efficient building operations, the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) as a design and analysis tool is increasing. Although the colorful pictures are compelling and usually informative to experienced practitioners, there is frequently a lack of understanding about the basics, benefits, limitations and pitfalls of CFD simulation and analysis. This session provides nuts and bolts of CFD to practicing engineers and managers to help them separate substance and value out of CFD simulations and discusses a few selected applications of CFD for improved design of the built environment.
