Applied Fluid Mechanics. 3 credits

Catalog description

Introduction to concepts of fluid mechanics and solving its equations using numerical techniques. The concepts and methods of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) will be introduced. Topics include fluid mechanics equations, spatial and temporal discretization, finite difference and finite volume schemes, accuracy and convergence. This course requires writing of code to solve the governing equations of fluid mechanics. Offered by Physics & Astronomy . May not be repeated for credit.
