MAE 3130: Fluid Mechanics Lecture 10: Internal and External Flows Spring 2003 Dr. Jason Roney Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering 1 Outline Review of Viscous Pipe Flow Laminar Pipe Flow Overview of External Flows Turbulent Pipe Flow Boundary Layer Characteristics Pressure Gradients Effects Lift and Drag 2 Viscous Pipe Flow: Review Pipe flow versus Open-channel flow: Pipe Flow: Open-Channel Flow: Pipe is completely filled with fluid Pipe is not full of fluids Pressure gradients drive the flow Pressure gradient is constant Gravity can also be important Gravity is the driving force i.e., flow down a concrete spill way. 3 Viscous ...
MATH749—Fall2013 1 MATH749—MATHEMATICALANDCOMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS Time & Place — Wednesdays 10:30–12:30 and Fridays 12:30–13:30 in HH/410 Instructor: Dr. Bartosz Protas Email: bprotas@mcmaster.ca Oce HH 326, Ext. 24116 Course Webpage: http://www.math.mcmaster.ca/ bprotas/MATH749 ˜ Outline of the Course: In this course we will survey mathematical and computational aspects of incompress- ible uid mechanics. The course will focus on the development and properties of mathematical models of uid ows, such as the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations, and its various simplications relevant to poten- tial, creeping and boundary-layer ows. In addition to presenting standard theories ...
