Member of the NVV, Dacolt offers the following course at 18,19 and the 20th of november 2015

This 3-day training focuses on (U)RANS modeling and aims to get the participants familiar with thebasic theoretical concepts used in turbulent combustion modeling and to provide hands-on exercisesto apply the theory in practice.

Course participants should have basic knowledge of using OpenFOAM technology for CFD modelingpurposes. Combustion theory basics will be covered during the first day of the training. Advancedtopics like LES, radiation, heat-transfer and pollutants are not covered. The training will be provided inEnglish.
