Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
Knowledge required for performing a complete CFD analysis. In particular to identify and choose approximations and models, choose boundary conditions, design and dimension the computational grid, identify and quantify sources of error, and take into account quality and reliability of the computational results.
Additionally, doctoral students will gain knowledge into defining and promoting a CFD project.
Literature and preparations
Specific prerequisites
SG2212/SG3114 Computational Fluid Dynamics (7,5 ECTS) or similar knowledge in numerical methods for CFD.
Recommended prerequisites
SG2212/SG3114 Computational Fluid Dynamics (7,5 ECTS) or similar knowledge in numerical methods for CFD.
Literature
Lecture notes.
Examination and completion
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Grading scale
P, F
Examination
- INL1 - Assignment, 1.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- PRO1 - Project work, 1.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
- SEM1 - Seminars, 4.0 credits, grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
INL1 Assignment 1,0 hp (P, F)
PRO1 Project work 1,0 hp (P, F)
SEM1 Seminars 4,0 hp (P, F)
Additionally to SG2224, doctoral students taking SG3224 are required to define and write an additional CFD project description and to present that project for the SG2224-students. This implies that the doctoral students will take the SG2224 course the first year and formulate the additional CFD project descriiption for the next year SG2224 class. Supervision of the students doing their proposed project is not part of the course requirements.
Other requirements for final grade

Ethical approach
- All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
- In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
- In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
