DESCRIPTION:\n\nEuroCC@Greece and the National Technical University of Ath
 ens announce the 10th Course of HPC Training Series  with the subject "Int
 roduction to Computational Fluid Dynamics and OpenFOAM\, using High Perfor
 mance Computing"\, that will take place online on February 17th\, 2025.  
    \n\nDate: February 17th\, 2025\, at 10:00 EET   \n\nLocation: Onlin
 e via Zoom \n\nPresentation Languages: Greek & English\n\nAudience: Suitab
 le for students\, researchers\, and engineers working in the field of Comp
 utational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)\, who are interested in working in an HPC e
 nvironment.\n\nDescription: The course includes an introduction to High-Pe
 rformance Computing (HPC) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) using Ope
 nFOAM\, with a demonstration of the SLURM job submission system. The sessi
 on begins with setting up and troubleshooting a virtual HPC environment\, 
 which attendees will install on their own machines to simulate an HPC expe
 rience. The schedule covers fundamental concepts of CFD\, such as the noti
 ons of a mesh\, turbulence modeling\, solution algorithms and discretizati
 on schemes and introduces OpenFOAM’s features and history. Attendees wil
 l submit and manage CFD jobs in a simulated HPC environment. The course wi
 ll conclude with examples of high fidelity simulations from various engine
 ering domains\, from Politecnico di Milano. \n\nObjectives: The objective 
 of the training is to introduce newcomers to basic concepts related to CFD
  and to make them familiar with the open-source CFD toolbox OpenFOAM. Addi
 tionally\, at the end of the training\, the attendees should have understo
 od how a job submission tool\, like SLURM\, can be used to submit and trac
 k jobs in an HPC environment. A final objective is to inform the attendees
  about the CPU cost of demanding CFD cases and how HPC can help them tackl
 e such problems at reasonable turnaround times. \n\nPrerequisites: Familia
 rization with a Linux-like Command Line Interface (CLI) is necessary to na
 vigate around the example cases that will be provided and to make small mo
 difications to them. A CLI-based editor (vi\, emacs\, nano\, etc) will als
 o be useful to manipulate the provided cases but is not strictly necessary
 . The attendees that want to follow the hands-on part of the training will
  have to download a Docker image  that will include OpenFOAM and a virtua
 l HPC environment\, containing SLURM. Finally\, basic understanding of flu
 id mechanics\, linear algebra and CFD are also useful background knowledge
  for following the training.\n\nFind here the instructions for installing 
 the virtual environment.\n\n \n\nNote: Please enter your institutional/co
 rporate email when registering.\n\n \n\nhttps://events.grnet.gr/event/159
