I have knowledge of various models associated in CFD. And I have knowledge of commercial codes like FLUENT.

I have just an elementray C programming knowledge.

What is the Best Book to learn coding for CFD? All books in the market teach me theory. But not how to materialise that knowledge to a efficient code.

And what kind of problems can be chosen.

Can anyone suggest.

Recommend starting with a simple conduction solution on a XY hex mesh. Start developing a solver engine to handle the diffusion terms with a time transient solution. Then introduce a fixed advection component, e.g. blowing across one face, each CV has a fixed velocity. This would be a solution to Burger's equation. After you have this, you have a generic AD (advection-diffusion) solver. From here, start to move in the direction of the pressure solution. After that, move towards coupling all terms in one global solution, i.e. P then u the v.

Focus on the generic AD solver which is robust enough will be suitable for any AD process such as implementing a kE turbulence model.

Thanks Q. Your info was useful.

But I want someone to suggest books from which I start. I'm an amateur. Or are there any e-books on internet.

hai!

Refer CFD by Anderson book....given materials to write code...

and refer this link... http://www.auburn.edu/~ajm/teaching/...programs/stag/

happy computing...

I would suggest you the book: "Numerical Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow" by Suhas V. Patankar

It's a bit old, but could help you.
