ECTS 2.5
Goal(s)
- Give basic theoretical knowledge in fluid mechanics, and some know-how using approximate tools (hydraulics, turbulent transfer)
- Apply that knowledge and know-how to circuits for nuclear plants, or other systems for energy production
Content(s)
- Physics of fluids, flow classification
- One-D balance equations for mass, momentum, energy
- Head loss, Pipe flow
- Pumps and turbines, hydraulic networks
- Local differential equations, Simple shear flows
- Turbulence, mixing length model, turbulent boundary layer
Prerequisites
- Mechanics (fundamental principles, stress tensor)
- Vector analysis (gradient, divergence, curl)
- partial differential equations
