Training Sessions at the FLOW-3D World Users Conference 2022
Advanced Training Sessions
In conjunction with the FLOW-3D World Users Conference 2022, advanced training sessions will be held the afternoon of May 16, 2022 at the conference hotel. Taught by senior technical staff and experts in their fields, advanced training sessions include Version Up seminars for FLOW-3D CAST, FLOW-3D AM, FLOW-3D HYDRO and FLOW-3D as well as a FLOW-3D POST session focused on best practice workflows and commonly-asked support questions. The courses are scheduled so that everyone, regardless of their application, can participate in the FLOW-3D POST training session. All training sessions cost 100 €, and training fees are waived for presenters. You can sign up for multiple training sessions when you register online.
Version Up: FLOW-3D
Instructor: Marcin Serdeczny, CFD Engineer, Flow Science
The FLOW-3D training session will focus on the following advanced topics in fluid flow modeling: a new log-conformation tensor approach for the solution of visco-elastic fluid flows, advances in two-phase flow modeling, improvements to the VOF method using a new VOF-to-particle model, expanded Active Simulation Control using sampling volumes, non-Newtonian fluids with training on Herschel Bulkley fluids, and using 2D tables to characterize complex fluid properties, for example where the viscosity is a function of both temperature and strain rate.

Time: 13:00-14:00
Cost: 100 €
Version Up: FLOW-3D AM
Instructor: John Wendelbo, Director of Sales, Flow Science
This training session is geared towards FLOW-3D AM users as well as those interested in exploring the powerful capabilities of FLOW-3D AM for simulating additive manufacturing and laser welding processes. An overview of how to integrate FLOW-3D AM with FLOW-3D (x) and cloud-based HPC resources will showcase how batch simulations with different process parameters can be run in an automated manner with the goal of process optimization. Next, Python’s interoperability with FLOW-3D POST and FLOW-3D (x) is leveraged to extract simulation data to help build process maps for melt pool dimensions, temperature gradients and cooling rates.

Version Up: FLOW-3D HYDRO
Instructor: Karthik Ramaswamy, Senior CFD Engineer
The FLOW-3D HYDRO session covers four development topics: the new cutcell method, a simplified axial pump model, the new dissolved oxygen model, and 2D tables that are used to characterize complex fluid property dependencies. In addition, we will explore how FLOW-3D HYDRO and FLOW-3D POST can be integrated into the FLOW-3D (x) workflow for automated parameter studies, optimization and postprocessing.

Version Up: FLOW-3D CAST
Instructor: Dr.-Ing. Dipl.-Phys. Matthias Todte, Flow Science Germany
This one-hour FLOW-3D CAST training course will begin with an introductory overview and a review of the new features and GUI design changes in FLOW-3D CAST v5.1. Through examples, new workspaces will be covered in detail, including Investment Casting, Continuous, Sand Core Making, Centrifugal as well as the new Exothermic Sleeve capabilities and database. We will also discuss the new chemistry-based solidification model available in FLOW-3D CAST v5.1.

Creating Optimal Workflows with FLOW-3D POST
This training session is intended for all users of FLOW-3D products, regardless of application.
Instructor: Marcin Serdeczny, CFD Engineer, Flow Science
Powered by the ParaView engine, FLOW-3D POST provides modelers with superior analysis capabilities within an intuitive postprocessing interface. Training will begin with a review of the workflow that users are encouraged to adopt for effective postprocessing. In the second part of the training, we will review and answer the most common support questions we have received since FLOW-3D POST was released in early 2021. The third part of the training will focus on implementing batch postprocessing in order to automate analysis and visualization workflow.
