Students independently develop technological solutions for practice-relevant flow problems utilizing analytical approaches and numerical simulation.
The lecture is part of the Applied Fluid Mechanics Module consisting of an in interlinked lecture (VO), a CFD project (PR) and a laboratory exercise (LU).
Application of practical flow simulation software, numerical and theoretical treatment of typical applied problems from modeling to problem solving.
The project contains selected applications from the following fields:
- One Directional Flow Phenomena
- Heat & Fluid Flow Applications
- Elements of Fluid Flow Instabilities
- Elements of Aerodynamics
A summary of the numerical and analytical analysis of selected problems in the field of applied fluid mechanics will be collected in protocols and submitted. This includes a concise description of the problems, the chosen numerical procedure and a discussion including comparison to experimental observations (which are provided in the laboratory exercise).
The marks are based on the knowledge of the subject, on active participation and cooperation during the project and the submitted protocols.
Fundamentals of incompressible as well as frictionless and frictional flows, Euler and Navier-Stokes equations, Fundamentals of partial differential equations.
