Course Syllabus

On a daily basis we talk to companies in the likes of Tata Elxsi and Mahindra to fine tune our curriculum.

Week 01-CONVERGE Studio Module

In this module, you will learn how to set up a CFD simulation using CONVERGE CFD. You will be provided with step-by-step instructions on how to do the following:
- CAD import and cleanup
- Decomposing the model into boundaries and volumetric regions
- Inputting valve timing
- Choosing turbulence and combustion models
- Running the case in a parallel environment
- Post-processing

Week 02-Surface Preparation

In this module, you will learn surface preparation in complete detail. Specifically,
- Setting up the piston motion profile
- Boundary flagging
- Setting up the intake and exhaust valves

Week 03-Region Initialization and Valve Motion Setup

In this module, you will learn the following concepts:
- Initializing pressure, temperature, and species concentration in the intake, exhaust, and fire deck regions.
- Disconnect triangles
- Valve timing and the concept of minimum lift
- Valve profile input

Week 04-Turbulence Modelling

In this module, you will learn how turbulence is modelled and simulated in a state-of-the-art CFD solver. You will learn about the different classes of turbulence models and understand their merits and demerits. In this module, you will also learn about,
- RANS approach to model turbulence
- The math involved behind RANS and its derivations
Learn the theory behind the various types of turbulence models available (RNG k-, k- SST, and so on) and recognise which model is appropriate for which type of application.

Week 05-Combustion Modelling

In this module, you will learn how the SAGE detailed chemical kinetics solver works.
In addition to this, you will also learn how to use the Shell CTC combustion model.

Week 06-Emissions Modelling

To design efficient engines, one needs to have a firm grasp of emissions modelling.
You will learn about the Hiroyasu soot model and the Zeldovich nox model and apply them in engine simulations.
