Description
This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
In this course you will build a complete turbulent flow simulation
around a NACA 0012 airfoil from scratch using COMSOL Multiphysics.
We start with zero - no files, no pre-built models. You will set up
the geometry, configure the SST turbulence model, build a structured
mapped mesh, and run a full parametric sweep across eight angles of
attack from 0° to 14°. Every section is recorded step by step so
you can pause, rewind, and follow along at your own pace without
missing a single action.
By the end of the course you will have a validated CFD model that
matches real experimental data from NASA and published aerodynamics
research.
What makes this course different
- Every single click is shown on screen. Nothing is skipped.
- You understand what each step does, not just how to do it.
- You validate your results against real experimental data.
- You finish with a working model you can reuse and modify.
This course is for engineering students, researchers, and anyone
who wants to go from zero to a working COMSOL Multiphysics aerodynamics simulation.
No prior COMSOL experience is required. All you need is the software
installed and a basic understanding of fluid mechanics to get started.
Who this course is for
Engineering students studying fluid mechanics or aerodynamics
Researchers and graduate students working with CFD simulations
Engineers who want to learn COMSOL for external flow problems
Anyone transitioning from theory to hands-on simulation work
