Abstract
The Engineering Education requires that students acquire an appropriate knowledge on a mathematical computational language as well as on a numerical simulation procedure. The computational language of mathematics usually is taught in advanced courses, once that the curriculum mathematical education is mainly completed; in addition, the numerical simulation is usually located late or even in doctoral studies. In this paper, we propose that the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) become to be a teaching-learning tool, instead of a strategic resource only. CFD can be regarded as a transversal skill i.e., as a useful educational tool for the Hydraulic Turbomachines learning, which achieves to overcome some epistemological obstacles of students. We develop a teaching-learning method in which the Tutor Facilitator plays an important role.
