Aerodynamics – I Syllabus for B.Tech 4th sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Aerodynamics – I B.Tech (R13) fourthsem is as follows
OBJECTIVES:
- To introduce the concepts of mass, momentum and energy conservation relating to aerodynamics.
- To make the student understand the concept of vorticity, irrotationality, theory of airfoils and wing sections.
- To introduce the basics of viscous flow.
UNIT I : INTRODUCTION TO LOW SPEED FLOW [9 hours]
Euler equation, incompressible bernoulli’s equation. circulation and vorticity, green’s lemma and stoke’s theorem, barotropic flow, kelvin’s theorem, streamline, stream function, irrotational flow, potential function, equipontential lines, elementary flows and their combinations.
UNIT II : TWO DIMENSIONAL INVISCID INCOMPRESSIBLE FLOW [9 hours]
Ideal Flow over a circular cylinder, D’Alembert’s paradox, magnus effect, Kutta joukowski’s theorem, starting vortex, kutta condition, real flow over smooth and rough cylinder.
UNIT III : AIRFOIL THEORY [9 hours]
Cauchy-riemann relations, complex potential, methodology of conformal transformation, kuttajoukowski transformation and its applications, thin airfoil theory and its applications.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
OUTCOMES
- An ability to apply airfoil theory to predict air foil perform
