The subject knowledge on the Bachelor´s degree level is requested.

Course assessment consists of 40 points awarded for the semester project and 60 points awarded for the final test.

The scope of supervised instruction and the method of its implementation are defined by an annually updated directive issued by the course guarantor.

The objective of the course is to introduce students to the role of modern CAE tools within a comprehensive digital product design framework based on the principle of Electronic Product Definition (EPD).

Emphasis is placed on the practical use of numerical simulations as a support tool for engineering decision-making.

Students will become familiar with the SolidWorks Flow Simulation environment as a CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) tool for solving fluid flow and heat transfer problems. The instruction focuses on the practical application of numerical methods, proper construction of computational models, and interpretation of simulation results in the context of technical applications, particularly in the fields of electronics and electrical engineering.

After completing the course, the student will be able to:

• explain the principles of CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) and their role within the Electronic Product Definition (EPD) framework,

• navigate the capabilities and limitations of the SolidWorks Flow Simulation system,

• prepare a computational model including geometry as well as boundary and initial conditions,

• perform discretization (meshing) of a 3D model and assess its impact on the quality of simulation results,

• carry out mathematical and physical analyses of selected engineering problems in the areas of fluid flow and heat transfer,

• critically evaluate and interpret the results of numerical simulations with respect to engineering practice.
