Lectures

Goal

Introducing students to selected topics of theoretical and experimental aerodynamic in hyposonic, subsonic, transonic, supersonic and hipersonic speed area.

Outcome

Students will be introduced to the procedure of abstract thinking and creative idea generation,the methodology of the design and development of new aircraft and spacecraft on the most advanced technological solutions.

Theoretical teaching

The characteristics in the subsonic, transonic, supersonic and hipersonic wind tunnel testing. Calculation methods in aerodynamics, Selected topics from the boundary layer theory and turbulent flow. The characteristics of flow at low Reynolds numbers.

Practical teaching

Modeling and Simulation of flow with MATLAB, FLUENT etc. Simulation aerodynamic parameters in wind tunnels.

Attendance requirement

No special conditions.

Resources

Require additional materials (handouts, setting assignments, term papers, etc.) Are given at the web site or reproduced on paper. Large-scale electronic materials can be made available to students in direct contact.
