ME 576 Aerodynamics

This is a 3-credit, required course for students in the Aerospace concentration offered to engineering juniors. It extends fluid mechanics concepts to the aerodynamic performance of wings and bodies in sub/supersonic regimes. The course will cover: subsonic potential flows; viscous flows; aerodynamics of airfoils and wings; and supersonic and hypersonic airfoil theory (steady normal shock waves, steady oblique shock waves, Prandtl-Meyer expansion, shock-expansion theory).
