AS3411: Low And High Speed Aerodynamics Laboratory syllabus for Aerospace Engg 2021 regulation

Low And High Speed Aerodynamics Laboratory detailed syllabus for Aerospace Engineering (Aerospace Engg) for 2021 regulation curriculum has been taken from the Anna University official website and presented for the Aerospace Engg students. For course code, course name, number of credits for a course and other scheme related information, do visit full semester subjects post given below.

For Aerospace Engineering 4th Sem scheme and its subjects, do visit Aerospace Engg 4th Sem 2021 regulation scheme. The detailed syllabus of low and high speed aerodynamics laboratory is as follows.

Course Objectives:

• To study experimentally the aerodynamic forces on different bodies at low and high speeds.
• To predict different aerodynamic propulsion used in aero application
• To study airfoil and wing characteristics

List of Experiments:

1. Calibration of subsonic wind tunnel.
2. Illustrate the Pressure distribution over smooth and rough cylinder.
3. Illustrate the Pressure distribution over symmetric aerofoils.
4. Illustrate the Pressure distribution over cambered aerofoils & thin aerofoils.
5. Measure the forces acting on a model using wind tunnel balance.
6. Demonstrate the flow over a flat plate at different angles of incidence.
7. Show the flow visualisation studies in low speed flows over cylinders.
8. Show the flow visualisation studies in low speed flows over aerofoil with different angle of incidence.
9. Calibration of supersonic wind tunnel.
10. Show the Supersonic flow visualization with Schlieren system.

Course Outcomes:

On successful completion of this course, the student will be able to

1. Experiment with the wind tunnel for wall effect, blockage and support interference on the measurements as well as determining the uncertainty in the measurement technique.
2. Determine the pressure distribution and forces acting over aerodynamical models.
3. Explain flow over the aerodynamical model through flow visualisation.
4. Illustrate the limits and usefulness of the experimental approach.
5. Demonstrate the experimental findings in clear oral and concise report
