Aims
To further develop the essential principles of Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer
Module Content
Outline Syllabus:Governing equations of viscous flow. Navier –Stokes and Continuity Equations. Prantl boundary layer equation, Blausis solution and simplified working relationships. VonKarman momentum integral and turbulent boundary layers structure.
Streamline and bluff bodies, lift and drag coefficients, boundary layer separation and wake, wind tunnel testing.
Analytical and numerical methods applied to multi-mode heat transfer problems including radiation, conduction and convection.
Heat Exchanger analysis including Log means temperature difference (LMTD), Heat exchanger effectiveness method (NTU).
Additional Information:This module takes an in-depth look into the governing equation and theory of the complex area of fluid flow and heat transfer. The underpinning ideas are delivered by lectures and tutorials which requires the student to have a fundamental understanding of the principles and how to apply them to practical situations.
