This course is more than a series of videos; it's a career accelerator. We've distilled decades of practical, in-the-trenches experience into a system designed to make you an asset in your field.

In this in-depth tutorial, we break down one of the most critical stages of any successful Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation: setting your boundary and initial conditions. This is where you tell the software how your model interacts with the physical world, and getting it right is fundamental to achieving an accurate result.

Watch as we guide you step-by-step through the process in modern CFD software, from assigning the correct physical condition to each boundary to understanding the crucial role of initial conditions in both steady-state and transient analyses.

In this video, you will learn:

The conceptual difference between boundary conditions (the rules at the edges) and initial conditions (the starting guess).

How to assign and modify boundary types like Velocity Inlets, Pressure Outlets, and Walls.

When to use a symmetry plane or slip wall for open domains.

How to apply thermal conditions like constant temperature or a fixed heat flux.

The critical importance of initial conditions and how they can impact convergence.

This video is for any engineer who wants to build confidence in their CFD setup and ensure their results are built on a solid foundation.

How does Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simplify the complex, molecular world into solvable equations? The answer lies in one of the most foundational principles of fluid dynamics: the continuum assumption.

This short, clear video breaks down this essential concept. We explain how CFD treats fluids as continuous, rather than as a collection of discrete molecules, and why this simplification is crucial for defining properties like density, pressure, and velocity. You will also learn about the Knudsen number—the critical dimensionless value that tells you when the continuum assumption is valid and, more importantly, when CFD cannot be used.

In this video, you will learn:

What the continuum assumption is and why it's fundamental to CFD.

How fluid properties are defined at a continual vs. a molecular level.

What the Knudsen number is and how it's calculated.

The limits of the continuum assumption and when CFD is no longer a valid tool.
