CH E 582 - Mathematical Modelling in Fluid Dynamics

(3 units)

Prerequisite(s): Open to Chemical Engineering MS, Engineering MS, Aerospace Engineering MS, or Mechanical Engineering MS students only; or consent of instructor.
The objectives of this course are to teach the principles of mathematical modelling in fluid dynamics with applications in Chemical Engineering to develop the students’ ability in analyzing the fundamental and applied aspects of fluid flow problems such as equations of motion, exact solutions, dynamic similarity, specialized equations, laminar boundary layers, turbulence, and flow over immersed bodies. Additionally, to further, develop the students’ ability to apply the basic principles of fluid mechanics, mathematical concepts, experimental data, and engineering judgment to specific Chemical Engineering problems.

Letter grade only (A-F).
