Viscous flows  

Description

Course Contents The transport equations of mass, momentum and energy for flows with viscosity and heat conduction: the Navier-Stokes equations; molecular transport properties; boundary layer simplifications. Incompressible laminar flows: exact solutions, self-similar and non-similar boundary layers; approximate (integral) methods for boundary layer computations. Laminar flows with thermal and compressibility effects. Stability of laminar flows; transition. Turbulent flows: basic concepts, law of the wall and defect law, equilibrium boundary layers, introduction to turbulence modelling. Study Goals Understanding and operational knowledge of viscous flow concepts and their relevance to applications in the aeronautical domain.
