    ME 4340 Applied Fluid Mechanics (Elective)

    Catalog Description: ME 4340 Applied Fluid Mechanics (3-0-3)


    Prerequisites: ME 3345 Heat Transfer
    Advanced study in fluid mechanics. Topics selected from turbomachinery, flow
    measurement, compressible flow, aerodynamics, external flows, and
    microfluidics. Course includes student group projects with oral and written
    presentations.

    Textbook: Bruce R. Munson, Theodore H. Okiishi, Wade W. Huebsch, and Alric P.


    Rothmayer, Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics, 7th Edition, John Wiley and
    Sons, 2013.

    Topics Covered (not inclusive):

    1. A brief refresher on basic fluid mechanics concepts.


    2. Introduction to compressible flows, mainly of ideal gases: One-dimensional flow in a
    converging-diverging duct. Normal shocks. Fanno flows. Rayleigh flows. Oblique shocks.
    3. Introduction to turbomachinery: Centrifugal- and axial-flow pumps and turbines, including wind
    turbines. Velocity triangles. Balance of Angular Momentum. One-dimensional steady energy
    equation. Euler turbomachine equation. Dimensional analysis. Quantifying efficiency and
    performance. Interpreting pump curves.
    4. Introduction to microfluidics: How are the governing equations for microscale flow different
    from macroscale flows? An introduction to mass transport. Ficks law and the one-dimensional
    diffusion equation. Laminar Poiseuille flow at low Reynolds numbers. Taylor-Aris dispersion.
    A brief review of electrostatics and an introduction to the electric double layer.
    Electrokinetically driven flows. A brief introduction to microfabrication techniques.

    Course Outcomes:

    Outcome 1: Improve and expand the students understanding of the basic principles of fluid mechanics.
    1.1 The student will demonstrate the ability to recognize the type of fluid flow that is occurring in a
    particular physical system, e.g. whether a flow is incompressible or compressible, microscale or
    macroscale, and whether angular momentum is significant in a flow.
    1.2 The student will demonstrate the ability, based on their identification of the type of flow, to
    choose the appropriate fluid mechanical principles needed to analyze these fluid-flow situations.

    Outcome 2: Improve and expand the students skills in analyzing fluid flows through the proper use of
    modeling and the application of basic fluid-flow principles.
    2.1 The student will demonstrate an ability to apply appropriate simplifying assumptions and basic
    fluid-flow principles to produce a mathematical equation that models the flow in a physical
    system.
    2.2 The student will demonstrate an ability to solve and analyze the mathematical equation
    associated with a physical fluid-flow system.

    Outcome 3: To provide the student with some specific knowledge regarding fluid-flow phenomena
    observed in mechanical engineering systems, such as flow in turbomachinery, compressible flows in ducts,
    and flows in capillaries.
    3.1 The student will be able to recognize the particular flow regime that is present in a typical
    engineering system.
    3.2 The student will demonstrate knowledge of important practical results in common fluid flows and
    their physical implications.

    Outcome 4: Improve the students research and communication skills using a self-directed, group study of a
    contemporary fluid-flow problem with results that will be communicated in both oral and written form.
    4.1 The student will demonstrate the ability to research a topic and synthesize information from a
    variety of sources to analyze and investigate the fluid-flow behavior, and to understand the
    results.
    4.2 The student will demonstrate the ability to work with a group to communicate the results of this
    detailed fluid-flow study in an oral format.
    4.3 The student will demonstrate the ability to work with a group to communicate the results of this
    detailed fluid-flow study in a written format.
