Course Description: Basic results, conservation laws, potential, airfoil and wing analysis. Boundary layers on plates and airfoils. Pressure gradients. Introduction to turbulence and vortex-dominated flows.  Units = 3-0-3.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • How aerodynamic lift, drag and pitching moment are generated, and how they act.
  • Basic physical approach to describing fluid dynamics.
  • Potential flow concept to describe and predict aerodynamics.
  • Thin-airfoil theory and genesis of the results of 2-D incompressible results.
  • Finite-Wing effects and their modeling.
  • Lifting-line approach to calculate lift and induced drag on wings.
  • Boundary-layer concept to describe effects of viscosity.
  • Simple models of the boundary layer .
  • Physical concepts of turbulence and its effects.
  • Features of flows at high angles of attack.

 

Prerequisites:
