Aerodynamics & Heat Transfer
Differential equations of motion. Viscous and inviscid regions. Potential flow: superposition; thin airfoils; finite wings; compressibility corrections. Viscous flow: thin shear layer approximation; laminar layers; transition; turbulence modeling. Convective heat transfer: free versus forced convection; energy and energy integral equations; turbulent diffusion. Also offered at the graduate level, with additional or different requirements, as
MECH 5000, for which additional credit is precluded.
Prerequisite:
MAAE 3300.
Lectures three hours a week.
