MNE 431 - Fluid Mechanics II

3 credits
3 hours lecture
Prerequisites: MNE 332, consent of instructor
Basic equations of fluid mechanics, applied to quasi one-dimensional, compressible flows, including: isentropic flows with area changes, Fanno and Rayleigh flows, and normal shock waves. Two-dimensional flow fields are studied using Prandtl-Meyer expansion and oblique shock waves. The basic concepts are applied to selected topics such as: aircraft and rocket propulsion, combustion chambers in jets and rockets, wind tunnels and shock tubes, supersonic diffusers, and flow about supersonic airfoils.
