Objective:

The main objectives of this course are to familiarize attendees with the basic operation of scSTREAM and to equip them to handle typical thermal/CFD problems encountered during the design process.  This course will focus on functions useful for indoor HVAC simulations and external flow/aerodynamics around buildings. The attendees will acquire basic knowledge about:

- Basic Operation of scSTREAM

- Checking the validity of the simulation

- Advanced functions of scSTREAM

- Finding information and/or acquiring necessary help
