Conjugate heat transfer (CHT) training, Simcenter STAR-CCM+, online
Training overview
This training starts with a walkthrough of the different modes of heat transfer, their driving forces and the governing equations. After the fundamentals, you will get a walkthrough of the recommended practice on how to model conjugate heat transfer in Simcenter STAR-CCM+, e.g. mesh considerations, physics setup, solver settings and much more. The training includes recommendations on best practices and alongside the theoretical part you will also perform hands-on workshops to apply what you’ve learned during the training.
Duration: four half-days (4x4h).
Level: Intermediate
