TIMEPERIOD: Q I-II LANGUAGE:English/Swedish EXAMINER Håkan Gustavsson Prof PREREQUISITES MTM052 Hydromechanics, MAM003 Mathematics COURSE AIM The purpose of the course is to develop an understanding of fluid mechanical phenomena on the basis of a differential equation formulation of the equations of motion. CONTENTS Description of the flow field (30%): The continuum model, Euler and Lagrange coordinates, particle path, streakline, streamline, stream function, circulation, vorticity, potential; laws for mass, momentum and energy, conditions for various approximations. Inviscid flow (35%): Potential flow, elementary solutions to Laplace's equation, Kelvins theorem, lift theory. Viscous flow (35%): Exact solutions of Navier-Stokes equations, boundary layers, stability and turbulence transition, turbulent flow. TEACHING Class-room teaching. EXAMINATION Written exam in two parts; homework assignments with credit points. COURSE GRADE SCALE: U, 3, 4, 5 ITEMS/CREDITS | |
