Course Description

Solidworks particle study documentation


CFD analysis and optimization using SolidWorks topics are covered in every video. The videos discuss problems unique to their industry and illustrate them with straightforward examples. This course was developed with intermediate and advanced students in mind. 


Unit 1: The Effects of Reduced Nozzle Size and Obstacles on the Flow of Fluids

Learning outcome: Students will be able to solve the characteristics of flowing stream in a reduction nozzle.

Problem: Find the characteristics of the flowing stream in a nozzle, knowing that a sphere is located in the space between the higher diameter pipe and the reduction zone.

Questions to solve:

  1. The average velocity at the outlet.

  2. Velocity flow field.

  3. Pressure distribution within the fluid.

  4. Pressure at the surface of the sphere.

  5. Pressure at the surface of the duct.


Unit 2: Loss coefficient calculations under different conditions

Learning outcome: Students will be able to estimate the loss coefficient under different operating levels.

Problem: Estimate the loss coefficient in a ball valve under different opening levels.

Questions to solve:

Given the formulas for loss of coefficient and Reynolds number, we will find:

  1. The calibration curve when the valve opening is at 0 degrees.

  2. The calibration curve when the valve opening is at 10 degrees.

  3. The calibration curve when the valve opening is at 15 degrees.

  4. The calibration curve when the valve opens at 20 degrees

  5. extract the data into an excel sheet and graph all the results at different angles.


Unit 3: Fluid characteristics of a counter-current heat exchanger

Learning outcome: Students will be able to set custom equations to solve complex heat transfer problems.

Objectives:

  • Set up a heat transfer model using the Simulation add-in in Solidworks

  • Show how to specify fluid subdomains when multiple fluids are required.

  • Show how to specify solid domains.

  • Set custom equations by using the Goals feature.

Problem:

Simulate a counter-current two-pipe heat exchanger.

Questions to solve:

Determine:

  1. The outlet temperature of both streams.

  2. Display the inlet and outlet velocities of both streams.

  3. Display a Cut Plot for the temperature.

  4. Display a flow trajectory plot for the temperature.

  5. Estimate the Log Mean Temperature Difference (LMTD).


Unit 4: The Effects of ventilation systems on the CO2 within an indoor space

Description:

COVID-19 has been a major public health concern after its outbreak in early 2020. An indirect way of estimating the probability of the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 in an indoor environment is by measuring the concentration of CO2 in the air. CO2 is a regular component of the air at a concentration of around 400ppm. However, in poorly ventilated facilities, this concentration can rise to an unsafe level.

Problem:

Simulate the ventilation of a classroom with an initial CO2 concentration in the air of 900 ppm. Use a time-dependant approach to track the change in concentration in the room.


Questions to solve:

Determine:

  1. Demonstrate the use of the design features such as: Convert Entities, Extruded Cut, and Extruded Boss/Base

  2. Simulate the transport of multiple species.

  3. Demonstrate how to specify the presence and concentration values of multiple species.

  4. Demonstrate how to specify a time-dependant model.


I really hope that this course will benefit everyone. If you have any questions, please write to me and I will make sure to answer your questions.


I wish everyone success in their life, whether it be for their studies or career. Have a great day ahead!

Solidworks particle study documentation is for anyone who would like to do CFD analysis.

Instructor Details

Omar Koryakin

Hi, I'm Omar a Principal Mechanical Engineer with 11+ years of hands-on experience designing, measuring, and validating precision products across medical devices, automotive, consumer electronics, and IoT.


Why I teach on Udemy:
I've always felt that engineering education is either too theoretical (textbooks full of equations with no context) or too shallow (YouTube tutorials that skip the "why"). My courses aim for the middle built from real factory-floor experience, explained in plain language, and visualized through real animations, not bullet-point slides.

the course overall was amazing. but I could not complete the section 4. I followed the steps exactly same but there were some problems which stopped me. the version I am using is 2023. thank you

By Krunal Kapadia on 6/9/2025

Nothing was explained why specific commands were used and not others.

By Johnpaul Carroll on 6/26/2024

geweldige cursus. Ik raad het ten zeerste aan aan iedereen die meer wil weten over CFD-simulatie

By Albin Nolan on 6/26/2024

As a CFD engineer working in Norway, I highly recommend this course. its concisely presented and professionally structured.

By Mandy Bergstrom on 6/26/2024

Coming from an engineering background, this course helped me massivley I like how the instuctor structuring the course as problem-solution way. Highly recommend it.

By Jaydon Ullrich on 6/19/2024

I was looking for something like this. Highly recommend this course for engineers in the cfd field

By Birdie Schuppe on 6/19/2024

As a mechanical engineer with 10 years of experience this is what I expect when picturing a well instructed course.

By Arsalan Abbas on 9/15/2023

This course was done greatly, I highly recommend this course to those who want to learn how to solve and perform CFD problems & operations using Solidworks.

By Ekhoe Osazee on 7/23/2022

This course was very helpful. I struggle with solid works in general as an undergrad student. This course made studying Solidworks particles a lot easier to understand and follow. I would be happy if the instructor can add more courses in the future.
