MEE514 Computational Fluid Dynamics

[3–0, 3 cr.]

This course focuses on introducing variety of computational techniques for solving the equations governing the fluid motion, with special emphasis on finite difference and finite volume methods. Theoretical background will be covered with focus on accuracy and stability of numerical schemes, as well as their application in real fluid problems. Students are expected to write their own codes and employ commercial software such as ANSYS Fluent. Applications will cover compressible inviscid and incompressible viscous flows.

Prerequisites: MEE212 Computer Applications in MEE and MEE403 Heat Transfer
