INTERMEDIATE FLUID DYNAMICS

CBE 620

Mass, momentum, and energy transport; kinetic theory of transport properties; analytical and approximate solutions to the equations of change; boundary layer theory; turbulence; simultaneous heat and mass transfer; multicomponent diffusion.

CIVENGR 310

Fluid statics and dynamics, dimensional analysis, flow of an ideal fluid, flow of a real fluid--including laminar and turbulent flow, applications to engineering problems.

ME 573

Provides an in-depth introduction to the methods and analysis techniques used in computational solutions of fluid mechanics and heat transfer problems. Model problems are used to study the interaction of physical processes and numerical techniques. Contemporary methods for boundary layers, incompressible viscous flows, and inviscid compressible flows are studied. Finite differences and finite volume techniques are emphasized. Knowledge of programming language such as Python, C++, MATLAB or Java required.

ME 363

Laws of mechanics and thermodynamics applied to fluids at rest and in motion; potential flow; dimensional analysis; viscous flow; pipe flow; boundary-layer theory; compressible flow.

MATH 705

Advanced introduction to fluid dynamics. Basic concepts; elementary viscous flow; Navier-Stokes equations. Elementary airfoil theory; boundary layers. Vortex motion. Waves. Very viscous flow. Compressible flows. Instabilities, bifurcations, turbulence. Requires working knowledge of multivariate calculus, differential equations and mechanics.
