Title: Using Computational Fluid Dynamics in the industry of household appliances

Abstract

The talk will cover the following aspects:
* Why understanding fluid flow in household appliances is useful?
* Basic principles of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
* What does CFD software offer to engineers and how it is typically used?
* Simple practical example: optimization of a 90o turn in a 2D channel
* Case study: CFD Analysis of a Tumble Dryer.
* Running CFD simulations on High Performance Computing (HPC) Systems
(optional).
