I love CFD. Been doing it the past 15 years… 💕

Early in 2016 I’ve decided to blog about it… I aim for the blog to share my CFD and fluid mechanics thoughts over quite a broad spectrum of related topics.

The intention of the INDEX is to provide a roadmap for “All About CFD…” posts and resources. There are more than a hundred posts and even more resources could be found through reaching out to me.

The blog essentially focuses on CFD, along with thermal analysis and thermodynamics. In other words – Physics. The language by which Physics is spoken is mathematics. The blog aims to provide a translation of most of the mathematics to phenomenology explained very subtly, and by such allow the many who wants to acquire the knowledge a chance to that in such a way than grappling with the formal language sometimes does.

The index contains: “All About CFD…” posts, “Slideshare-Alerts”, TIPS, Must watch lectures, lists of the “All About CFD” favourite contributors, and a lot more… but mainly, A PLATFORM FOR NETWORKING.

Special and Wonderful News

After almost 5 years, and hundreds of posts I have the privlidge, great honour and a rare opportunity to thank Dr. Alon Davidy for accepting the challenge and join me as “All About CFD…” co-administrator alongside with me!!!

This is quite a big challenge as Alon would have to decide upon his own voyage as an administrator. Alon fields of interest intercept with mine in many fields of interest, and in many other theoretical subjects we are diverge. 

This means that a great and very exotic kind of CFD and research that will enlighten the readers in topics like: 

• Multi-physics Simulations.
  
  
• Conjugate Heat Transfer and Chemical Reactions.
  
  
• Fire Safety and Chemical Explosions Simulations.
  
  
• High level of Chemical Engineering.
• Thermodynamics.
  
  
• Steam Reforming.
  
  

Both me and Alon are quite active and prolific in our writing, yet quite eclectic in our knowledge. We both just know that Alon’s joining as my equal blog administrator shall create an explosion of synergy.

This is always (another) great opportunity to thank our new authors for some of the future posts, my friends and colleagues Carmel Sela and Dani Koganovich Enjoy… 💕

Huge Change in my way of helpi

---

The huge chng is an offer of 5-10 (and more of course if needed…) of Private and dedicated mentoring which includes an hour of private Zoom lesson, tailored to the students interest and level, rare (my…) resources and tutorials for self learning during the session, a final project of the students choice conducted in collaboration with Tom Avraham a possible continuation of shorter pinpointed help after the finishing of the formal lessons, and a highly valued recommendation for the leading CFD companies for those in correspondence and prove worthy. 

The fee for a 5 hourly sessions is 20$ per session to be paid in advance (in some cases a workaround may be achieved for delicate financial cases cases explained by email or by reaching out to Tom Avraham)

 

The fee for 10 hourly lessons is 150$ to be paid in advance (in some cases a workaround may be achieved for delicate financial cases explained by email or by reaching out to Tom Avraham)

One order of magnitude (i.e. nearly one tenth of a shared Learning Hub Bundle) lower price than any Learning Hub, PRIVATE on the spot mentoring. Proven past success and seniority at mentoring with referrals.
