Detailed Analysis

CourseMarks Score®

9.8 / 10

CourseMarks Score® helps students to find the best classes. We aggregate 18 factors, including freshness, student feedback and content diversity.

Freshness Score

10.0 / 10
This course was last updated on 4/2022.

Course content can become outdated quite quickly. After analysing 71,530 courses, we found that the highest rated courses are updated every year. If a course has not been updated for more than 2 years, you should carefully evaluate the course before enrolling.

Student Feedback

10.0 / 10
We analyzed factors such as the rating (4.7/5) and the ratio between the number of reviews and the number of students, which is a great signal of student commitment.

New courses are hard to evaluate because there are no or just a few student ratings, but Student Feedback Score helps you find great courses even with fewer reviews.

Content Score

8.8 / 10
Video Score: 7.9 / 10
The course includes 2h 26m video content. Courses with more videos usually have a higher average rating. We have found that the sweet spot is 16 hours of video, which is long enough to teach a topic comprehensively, but not overwhelming. Courses over 16 hours of video gets the maximum score.
The average video length is 5 hours 31 minutes of 22 Computational Fluid Dynamics courses on Udemy.
Detail Score: 9.0 / 10

The top online course contains a detailed description of the course, what you will learn and also a detailed description about the instructor.

Extra Content Score: 9.5 / 10

Description

An introduction to the fundamentals of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that are used to solve complex fluid dynamics problems (weather prediction, aircraft flight, turbomachinery) by researchers, scientists and engineers around the world. The course starts from first principles and you will rapidly develop your first CFD solution using the Excel sheets and Python source code provided. By the end of the course, you will understand the importance of upwind differencing, Peclet number and mesh resolution. No prior experience is required and no specific CFD code/coding experience is required! You do not need ANSYS Fluent, OpenFOAM, Star CCM or any other CFD to use this course.

You will learn

✓ The fundamentals of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) that are used by engineers, scientists and researchers
✓ How to set up and solve your first CFD solution from first principles (using Excel, Python or MATLAB)
✓ The importance of central differencing, upwind differencing and Peclet number
✓ A common framework to solve any scalar transport equation in CFD

Requirements

• Basic vector calculus (dot product, gradient, cross product)
• Basic differential equations
• Basic linear algebra (matrices)
• Microsoft Excel, Python or MATLAB

This course is for

• High School/Secondary School Physics Students
• Undergraduate Engineers, Physicists and Scientists
• Masters and PhD level Students
