AA 210A: Fundamentals of Compressible Flow
Topics: development of the three-dimensional, unsteady, field equations for describing the motion of a viscous, compressible fluid (Euler and Navier-Stokes equations); entropy condition; jump equations for normal shock; linear acoustic wave; Riemann problem; unsteady one-dimensional flow; eigenvalues and characteristics; shock tube; area-averaged equations for one-dimensional steady flow; channel flow with heat addition and friction; flow in nozzles and inlets; steady supersonic flow in two-dimensions; oblique shock waves; Prandtl-Meyer expansion; small disturbance theory; potential flow; lift and drag of thin airfoils. Prerequisites: undergraduate background in fluid mechanics and thermodynamics.
