| Outcomes: | After completion of this course, the students should be able to:
1. Derive partial differential equations of continuity, momentum, and energy for compressible and incompressible flows[a2,a4] 2. Apply control volume theory for solution of inviscid and viscous flows [a2,a4] 3. Solve partial differential equations of selected external and internal flow problems [a2,a4, e] 4. Compare and use different levels of flow approximations use simplified models when necessary [a4,e] 5. Solve external and internal flow problems [a4,e] 6. Solve boundary layer, laminar, and turbulent flow problems [a4,e] 7. Solve similarity transformation equations numerically using Runge-Kutta methods [a4,k4] 8. Compute lift, drag, and separation for viscous flows[a4,e] 9. Make use of numerical and/or empirical methods when analytical methods fail [a4,k4] |
