Intermediate Fluid Mechanics

Catalog description

Cat. I This course provides a mixture of theory and applications and covers topics not found in the introductory course in fluid mechanics. Topics include kinematics of fluid flow, potential flow, Navier-Stokes and the theory of viscous flow, basic turbulence, boundary layer theory, and introduction to compressible flow. Recommended background: Introductory fluid mechanics (ES 3004, or equivalent).
