| FLUENT FlowLab: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Software for Engineering Education |
| |
| FLUENT FlowLab is a unique piece of educational software that uses the power of flow visualization through CFD to teach basic fluid mechanics principles in the engineering classroom. The software runs Fluent's general purpose CFD code, FLUENT, and pre-processor, GAMBIT, in the background, with a user-friendly, student-specific graphical user interface (GUI) on its front end. Based on ready-to-use exercises, FlowLab eliminates the long learning curve associated with general fluid flow modeling packages, making it easy to deploy as part of the undergraduate or masters-level curriculum.
With FlowLab, you can:
- Reinforce basic concepts of fluid mechanics and heat/mass transfer using computer simulation.
- Use computing exercises to augment and complement existing laboratory-based curriculum.
- Expand the learning experience with real-world applications of fluid flow and heat/mass transfer.
- Expose students to CFD and CFD concepts - an increasingly important skill in the job market.
