Common Misconceptions in CFD: Insights for Accurate Simulations

Join our webinar to learn about common misconceptions in CFD and learn practical strategies to enhance simulation accuracy, optimize workflows, and avoid costly errors in your computational models!

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a powerful tool widely used across various industries for simulating fluid flows, yet several misconceptions can lead to inaccuracies in simulations and misinterpretations of results. This webinar aims to address some of the most prevalent misconceptions in CFD, providing clarity and insights that can help practitioners and researchers improve the accuracy of their simulations.

By exploring these misconceptions, participants will learn to identify and avoid common pitfalls, enhance their understanding of CFD principles, and apply best practices in their work. By focusing on foundational concepts and practical applications, this session is designed to attract a broad audience from the CFD community, including academic researchers and industry professionals.

Three (Learning) Objectives: 

  1. Identify Common Misconceptions in CFD: Understand the common errors and misunderstandings in CFD, such as the over-reliance on certain models, improper boundary condition setups, and misinterpretations of simulation data.

  2. Improve Simulation Accuracy: Learn best practices to avoid common pitfalls, including the selection of appropriate turbulence models, mesh refinement techniques, and validation methods.

  3. Enhance CFD Applications: Gain insights into how these misconceptions can affect real-world applications and discover strategies to ensure more reliable and accurate CFD simulations.
