M.Tech (Computational Fluid Dynamics )

A Full-Time Residential Degree Program (24 months) in academic affiliation with UPES, Dehradun.The degree will be awarded by UPES & recognized by UGC.

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a revolutionary modern form of computational technology that numerically simulates fluid flow over virtual geometry. Until recently, CFD has only been effectively utilized within the aerospace and automotive industries because of high software costs and powerful computational requirements. With the development of computers that have high speed processing capability, it is now possible to run the majority of CFD models. CFD can be used in almost all industrial and non-industrial applications - starting with aerodynamics and gas turbine design, automotive engineering, turbo-machinery, chemical processes, marine engineering, environmental and biomedical engineering, meteorology, hydrology and oceanography etc.


This 24-months full-time, Master of Technology (M. Tech) in Computational Fluid Dynamics is an unique program in India and South East Asia, designed to equip students to accept challenges in the engineering applications of fluid flow and heat transfer and computational modeling.

Focus Areas:

- Theoretical and Computational Fluid Dynamics
- Hydrodynamic Modeling
- Computational Mechanics and Scientific Computation
- Numerical Modeling in Applied Mathematics, Science and Engineering
- Flow Through Porous Media
- Mesh Generation
