Basic information
This is the official
homepage of the PhD course CFD with OpenSource Software. It contains links to
the on-going and past courses, and to the published proceedings (collection of
tutorials) that are the outcome of the course each year. If you are not attending
the course, but find the homepage useful, please write me a couple of words (to
hakan.nilsson@chalmers.se) that
help me argue that this way of working is acknowledged.
Since 2021,
the course consists of two courses (click links for more information):
1.
Basic
Usage of OpenFOAM, 2 ECTS
2.
CFD
with OpenSource Software, 7.5 ECTS
The first
course is a prerequisite for the second course. There is a maximum number of
participants in both courses, and passing the first course is not a guarantee
to get a seat in the second course. I will pick the students that are most
likely to follow instructions, follow deadlines, work independently, share
knowledge, and deliver high quality. There is also an opportunity for the
students to get a first experience of the work required in these courses, and a
chance to decide to only complete the first course.
The course
is open and free of charge to PhD students from anywhere. All the course
material is available at the course homepages and it is of course free to learn
from that material without enrolling the course (without getting any
certificate). The participants only have additional access to assignments,
supervised project work, and will get a certificate after completion.
Literature
and links: It is not required to buy any book for the course. You should be
fine with the lecture notes and Internet resources.
Accommodation
(for on-site courses)
Map for lunches (for on-site course) - not arranged by the
course (there is a restaurant in the
same building).

Award
I am honored to have received the “OpenFOAM
community contribution award” during “The 3rd UCL OpenFOAM
Workshop”, 24th February 2021, with the motivation:
“He has created a free OpenFOAM
course at the Chalmers University of Technology. His course is totally free and
open for worldwide PhD students. He spent enormous hours preparing and
delivering the course, every year since 2007. The course covers deep knowledge
of various CFD topics and has practically helped many junior researchers to
solve their problems using OpenFOAM. He challenged his students to make a new
OpenFOAM function or solver before graduate, which made some of them become
pioneering young leaders who continue contributing CFD community in an
opensource manner.”
The selection process was (a)
nominated by audiences, (b) recommended by UCL OpenFOAM Workshop community (c)
approved by international OpenFOAM Workshop community.
A recording is available at https://youtu.be/IYNOZPVl9X8. It starts with a description of the award. I
get the award at 3:10, and it continues to 10:45. After that the award is given
also to another person. Note that I have asked them to donate the prize money
(£200) to UNHCR.
YouTube Channel
The
OSCFD YouTube Channel contains
some recordings from the course.

2025
I will not start thinking about the
2025 course until the 2024 course is finished. I will start a new list of
interested 1st February (don’t send applications before that date!). There is a
maximum number of participants, and the course quickly fills up. Meanwhile, have a look at the link
to information about the course(s) above.
