You cannot learn #CFD with #OpenFOAM by Internet searches because they spew incorrect, outdated, biased advice, and context-free AI summaries. Instead, CFD Direct provides OpenFOAM Training with 5 courses spanning 11 days and 900 pages of manuals. cfd.tips/tr26

People ask which of our #OpenFOAM Training #CFD courses are best for them? The answer is "all of them" as demonstrated by the proportion of our training participants who return to complete all the courses we provide. cfd.tips/trng

Our Productive #CFD #OpenFOAM courses teaches the difficult skill of planning simulations making appropriate assumptions. It uses coded tools to extract diagnostic data to find mistakes and revise assumptions, essential for high quality CFD cfd.tips/tprd

The coded file input, e.g. for coded function objects, is an incredibly powerful tool to extract the data you need from #OpenFOAM. We take participants through several coded examples on our Productive #CFD courses cfd.tips/tprd

Our #OpenFOAM Training is back in the classroom because people learn much more there. In person, you can easily ask "why" and, because we produce the code, you get a reliable answer. Unlike with an AI assistant, which doesn't know why. cfd.tips/trng

If you are using #OpenFOAM, Internet searches and AI assistants often regurgitate a lot of outdated, incorrect information scraped from unreliable sources. Our OpenFOAM Training instead gives authoritative advice from people who produce the software. cfd.tips/trng

Our #OpenFOAM Training is the only place to get authoritative advice about how to do #CFD with OpenFOAM. Why? Because we design and produce the software so only we know how it is meant to be used. So sign up for out training. cfd.tips/trng
