Barracuda Virtual Reactor Web-based Training August 22-26, 2022
2022-08-22 - 2022-08-26
This training is designed to get you up to speed with Barracuda Virtual Reactor in five days. Each day, attendees work through self-led materials and join a pre-scheduled 1-hour web meeting that emphasizes interaction with instructors and other participants. By the end of the course, you’ll have a working understanding of how to use Virtual Reactor™ software, including project setup, operating the solver, and post-processing using Tecplot for Barracuda. Depending on your organization’s needs, our experienced team of engineers and training staff can provide hands-on assistance as you set up your own project in Virtual Reactor during private break-out sessions.
Contact us for pricing information or to register your interest in the class.
