The course is intended for those with no previous knowledge of OpenFOAM and its use on high performance computing (HPC) clusters. Because of short length of the course, only a general overview of OpenFOAM and its basic functions are given.  Exercise session comprising step-by-step guided hands-on sessions will cover basic CFD modelling stages carried out with OpenFOAM, including implementation of own coding, and parallel processing on a HPC platform in batch mode. Course materials consist of copies of the presentation slides and tutorial material.

At the end of the course, participants have got a feel to a new software, are able to carry on with it more independently, and are familiar with OpenFOAM use on HPC platform.
