Specific Remarks on Courses

Fluid Dynamics II

Turbulent Flows

Berechnungsmethoden der Energie- und Verfahrenstechnik

Advanced CFD Methods


Lectured by Prof. Dr. Patrick Jenny, Spring 2020
  • A wide range of approaches in CFD are discussed.
  • Hand-on homework for each approaches.
  • Knowledge of fundamentals of CFD not necessarily needed.

Fundamentals of CFD Methods


Lectured by Dr. Andreas Haselbacher, Autumn 2019

  • Basic concepts and ways of analysis are covered in detail.
  • Theoretical homework and a small hand-on project.
  • Not only suits people that are new in this field but also those that want a thorough recap on the fundamentals of CFD.

Compressible Flows

Quantitative Flow Visualisation


Lectured by Prof. Dr. Thomas Rösgen, Autumn 2019

  • Main experimental techniques for flow visualization are introduced.
  • Almost no practical homework.
  • Useful for people that want to have a brief awareness of experimental techniques in fluid dynamics.

Stochastic Methods for Engineers & Nat. Sci.

Hydrodynamics and Cavitation

Fluid Dynamics with the Lattice Boltzmann Method

Theory and Modeling of Reactive Flows

Seminar in Fluid Dynamics for CSE


Lectured by Prof. Dr. Patrick Jenny, Autumn 2020

  • Do a project whose topic is proposed by Prof. Jenny, followed by a final presentation.
