AERO 4302 [0.5 credit] Aerodynamics and Heat Transfer


Differential equations of motion. Viscous and inviscid regions. Potential flow: superposition; thin airfoils; finite wings; compressibility corrections. Viscous flow: thin shear layer approximation; laminar layers; transition; turbulence modeling. Convective heat transfer: free versus forced convection; energy and energy integral equations; turbulent diffusion.
Includes: Experiential Learning Activity
Prerequisite(s): MAAE 3300 or MECH 3310.
Also offered at the graduate level, with different requirements, as MECH 5000, for which additional credit is precluded.
Lectures three hours a week, problem analysis two hours a week.
