Getting Started with Physics Simulation 

This interactive course is intended for on-demand learning and is the prerequisite for many physics simulation courses (if you are new to using the 3DEXPERIENCE platform). Using physics simulation apps on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform requires a baseline knowledge of how to log in to the platform, use 3DSearch to find and filter data, explore the data and manage maturity for the purpose of collaboration. The 3DEXPERIENCE native (desktop) apps and web interfaces (including dashboards) will be introduced in this course.

📌 Search for and explore physical products and simulation objects
📌 Manage maturity of data on the platform, track revisions, and delete example data
📌 Configure preferences and settings

Perform as a Fluid Dynamics Engineer

This course is an introduction to solving fluid flow and conjugate heat transfer problems in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. In this course, you will learn workflows for steady-state internal and external flow as well as Conjugate Heat Transfer (CHT) problems through the Fluid Model Creation and Fluid Scenario Creation apps.

Key concepts covered:
📌 Define fluid flow simulations in the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, including isothermal internal and external steady-state flow.
📌 Perform fully coupled conjugate heat transfer (CHT) simulations.
📌 Postprocess flow simulation results.

Fluid Simulation: Advanced Topics

This course includes lessons and workshops covering advanced
capabilities and techniques that can be included in a flow simulation
using the Geometry Idealization and Fluid Scenario Creation apps on the
3DEXPERIENCE platform. You can choose the lessons and workshops that are useful for you.

Key concepts covered:
📌 Understand convergence issues for steady-state and transient flow procedures.
📌 Include porous media modeling in a fluid flow analysis.

📌 Mesh fluid and solid domains using different meshing techniques.

📌 Configure and run simulations including compressible and/or multiphase flow.
