Design & Simulation
Computational fluid dynamics and thermal analysis for aerospace systems
About This Program
An intensive computational program focused on CFD methodology, mesh generation, solver configuration, and results validation. Students simulate external aerodynamics, internal flows, and conjugate heat transfer problems using industry-standard tools. Emphasis on verification against experimental data and engineering judgment.
Curriculum
Governing equations: continuity, Navier-Stokes, and energy
Turbulence modeling: RANS, LES, and DNS overview
Mesh generation strategies and grid independence studies
Boundary conditions, solver settings, and convergence criteria
External aerodynamics: airfoil and vehicle drag analysis
Internal flows: nozzle expansion and intake diffusion
Conjugate heat transfer and thermal management
