BOSfluids Basics
Why take this course?
This BOSfluids basics course introduces the interface and the first steps in using this water hammer analysis software.. It covers piping tabs, valves, boundary conditions, analysis setup, scenarios, result review, custom plots and the extraction of unbalanced forces. This self-paced online course includes video lectures and a completion certificate with PDH credits.
What you'll learn
After completing this course, you...
• can create and edit a basic piping model in BOSfluids
• can add valves and boundary conditions to a model
• can set up and run a basic analysis
• can review results, compare scenarios and create custom plots
About the course
We will walk you through the essential basics of the waterhammer analysis software BOSfluids, from navigating the interface and using piping tabs to exploring viewer options. Learn how to add valves, set boundary conditions, and run analyses with confidence.
You will also discover how to review results, manage scenarios, and create customized plots. Plus, we will show you how to make the most of the components database, help windows, and pipe editing tools, all leading up to a hands-on water hammer tutorial.
Perfect for engineers and fluid dynamics professionals who want to hit the ground running with BOSfluids.
