The aim of the course:
To give general information to the subjects mentioned in the course content and to give students the ability to not only master the basic concepts but also to develop good problem solving skills in compressible flows (gas dynamics) and to follow many more references.
 
Learning OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
LO - 1 : gain information on gas dynamics.1,31
LO - 2 : state the relations for: (a) Speed of sound in an arbitrary medium (b). Speed of sound in a perfect gas (c). Mach number1,31
LO - 3 : simplify the continuity and energy fundamental equations to relate the differential changes in density, pressure and velocity to the Mach number and the differential change in the area.1,31
LO - 4 : demonstrate the ability to solve typical normal-shock problems by use of tables and equations.1,31
LO - 5 : demonstrate the ability to solve typical problems involving normal shocks or oblique shocks by use of the appropriate Equations and tables or charts.1,31
LO - 6 : demonstrate the ability to solve typical Prandtl-Meyer flow problems by use of the appropriate equations and tables.1,31
LO - 7 : demonstrate the ability to solve typical Fanno and Rayleigh flow problems by use of the appropriate tables and equations.1,31
