Aim to learn how to use Star-CCM+ in 10 hours.
STAR-CCM+ (V.7.04 or higher version)
Star CCM+ Session 1
Introduction to Star-CCM+: Internal Flow Simulation
- Internal flow simulation
- Starting Star-CCM+ and accessing the tutorials
- Completion of Tutorials on Mixed Pipeflow & Mesh Generation (found in Star CCM+ tutorials under 'Training Guide', 'Tutorials' and 'Simple Flows')
- The note for this session can be downloaded (and a SolidWorks pipe geometry file)
Star CCM+ Session 2
Setting up a simulation
- External flow simulation
- Students will be given a geometry and given guidelines on how to set this up in Star CCM+
- The notes for this session is available for download with an accompanying SolidWorks geometry file.
Star CCM+ Session 3
Grid Refinement
- Using the simulations from Session 2, students will be investigating the effect of grid refinement
- The notes for this session can be downloaded.
- Star-CCM+ simulation files
Star CCM+ Session 4
External Flow Simulation
- Complex Geometry
- The notes for this session is available for download.
- Stage1
- Stage2
- Stage3
- Stage4
Star CCM+ Session 5
SolidWorks Model
- This session will examine a number of features that may be useful for your project.
- Build a (very) simple model first for your project. Do not spend more than 15 minutes for this.
- Revisit the last Week's material on how to build a good WolidWorks model for Star-CCM+.
- Import the SolidWorks file into Star-CCM+.
- Set up and run the simulation.
- Does it work? Great!
- Now you are ready to try more realistic final model.
