Summary
The content of the course is to acquaint students with the theory of fluid flow in three-dimensional space and specify resolution of laminar and turbulent flow in terms of the physical nature of a mathematical description. There will be resolved foundations of the theory of stability. As part the application of the boundary layer theory to special cases of the flow in simplified geometries including practical examples.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Students completing the course will be able to:
• Specify laminar and turbulent flow, including mathematical models
• Specify laminar and turbulent flow, including mathematical models
• Solve problems flow (velocity profiles and pressure losses) in simplified geometries
• Define the boundary layer at the wrap boards or other bodies
• Identify areas of flow separation
• Orient themselves in methods of dealing with turbulent flow
