Course Description
Course Objectives:
No Course Objectives
CO1 This course is intended to develop the skill of solving fluid flow, heat transfer, mass
transfer and related phenomena numerically.
CO2 This course starts with a discussion on mathematical behaviour and physical meaning of
governing equations of fluid dynamics. Then it covers different discretization methods and
grid generation techniques.
CO3 Finally, students will learn different/Mislaneous CFD techniques and they will apply these
techniques for solving simple problems.
CO4 As a part of this course, students will also solve real-life/Engineering problems by using
commercial/Open source CFD package.
Teaching Methodology
The pedagogy for this course consists of class-room instruction explaining formal methods and
techniques of CFD. It aims at people who are reading this course first time. However
mathematical level and the prior background in fluid dynamics/mechanics of under graduate
level is assumed in before start of this course.

Note:
It shall be the responsibility of the individual student to be regular in maintaining the self
study schedule as given in the course handout, attend the online/on demand lectures as
per details that would be put up in the BITS eLearn (Taxila) website elearn.bits-
pilani.ac.in and take all the prescribed components of the evaluation such as
Assignments/Quizes, Mid Semester and End Semester Examination according to the
Evaluation Scheme given in the respective Course Handout.
If the student is unable to appear for the Regular Examination due to genuine exigencies,
the student must refer to the procedure for applying for Make-up Examination, which will
be available through the Important Information link on the e Learn website on the date
of the Regular Examination. The Make-up Tests/Exams will be conducted only at
selected exam centre's on the dates to be announced later.
