TE4101 Advanced Fluid Mechanics Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021

COURSE OBJECTIVES

 To understand the laws of fluid flow for ideal and viscous fluids.
 To represent the real solid shapes by suitable flow patterns and to analyze the same for aerodynamics performances.
 To understand the changes in properties in compressible flow and shock expansion.

UNIT I BASIC EQUATIONS OF FLOW

Three dimensional continuity equation – differential and integral forms – equations of motion momentum and energy – Reynolds transport theorem – Navier – Stokes equation – Engineering Applications

UNIT II POTENTIAL FLOW THEORY

Rotational and irrorational flows – circulation – vorticity – stream and potential functions for standard flows and combined flows – representation of solid bodies by flow patters. Pressure distribution over stationery and rotating cylinders in a uniform flow – magnus effect – Kutta – Zhukovsky theorem. Complex potential functions. Conformal transformation to analyze the flow over flat plate, cylinder, oval body and airfoils. Thin airfoil theory – generalized airfoil theory for cambered and flapped airfoils.

UNIT III VISCOUS FLOW THEORY

Laminar and turbulent flow – laminar flow between parallel plates – Poiseuille’s equation for flow through circular pipes. Turbulent flow – Darcy Weisbach equation for flow through circular pipe – friction factor – smooth and rough pipes – Moody diagram – losses during flow through pipes. Pipes in series and parallel – transmission of power through pipes.

UNIT IV BOUNDARY LAYER CONCEPT

Boundary Layer – displacement and momentum thickness – laminar and turbulent boundary layers in flat plates – velocity distribution in turbulent flows in smooth and rough boundaries – laminar sub layer.

UNIT V COMPRESSIBLE FLUID FLOW

One dimensional compressible fluid flow – flow through variable area passage – nozzles and diffusers – fundamentals of supersonics – normal and oblique shock waves and calculation of flow and fluid properties over solid bodies (like flat plate, wedge, diamond) using gas tables

TOTAL: 45 PERIODS

COURSE OUTCOME

 After the completion of the syllabus students able to familiarized about the ideal and viscous fluid flow, boundary layer concepts and changes in properties in compressible flow and shock expansion.
