Fluid Mechanics 2 - MECH50010
Aims
The ME2 Fluid Mechanics module aims to continue the development of key aspects of engineering fluid mechanics.
Topics include dimensional analysis, the mass-conservation and momentum-balance principles applied to a fluid particle, the differential form of the governing equations (Navier-Stokes), incompressible flows, exact (Couette-Poiseuille flows) and approximate (boundary layers, Blasius solution, lubrication) solutions, turbulent channel/pipe flows and the time-averaged governing equations (RANS), compressible flows (speed of sound, Mach cone, isentropic-flow relations and converging-diverging nozzles).
