This course aims to link with the Level 2, Elementary Fluids mechanics, Course extending the theory to include the study of viscous flows, with application to lubrication, pipe flow and boundary layer flows. The course then introduces aerofoil theory, and gives applications to the flow over real aerofoils. Finally, the course studies the application to aeroplane dynamics, including take-off and landing.
Learning Outcomes
Having successfully completed the module, students should be able to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of:
1.1. The principles of laminar and turbulent viscous flow
1.2. The behaviour of unbounded flow with friction (boundary layers) and bounded flows (pipe flow).
1.3. The basics of ideal flow theory and flow over aerofoils.
1.4. Aeroplane dynamics.
