IMEC-4200 Thermofluids

Physical properties of fluids, kinematics of the flow field, force and heat flow, equations that govern flow movement, movement equations applications, boundary layers and introduction to turbulence. Kinematics: Euler and Lagrange descriptions. Speed field and its gradient: Acceleration, Vorticity, Change of Volume, Deformation. Determination of accelerations, vorticity and deformation in these flows. Force and heat flow: Pressure and gravity, Viscous forces, thermal conduction and Fourier Law. Laminar Boundary Layers: Prandtl and VonKarman-Pohlhaussen equations. Integral solutions for hydrodynamic and thermal layer. Film dragging coefficients and thermal convection. Introduction to turbulence: Non-lineal dynamic problems "simples" with chaotic evolution. Stable and unstable balance, limit cycles and "atractores extraños". The "clausura&ldquo problem, of statistical chaotic dynamic system models. Simple hypotheses in the surroundings of a wall. Thermal - Hydrodynamic Analogies and convection in turbulent CL.
