ME 4803 - Computational Fluid Dynamics3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
Course Description
This course builds a fundamental understanding of the underlying partial differential equations for fluid flow and provides experience with the numerical tools available for solving fluid flow problems. Commercial software will be employed for certain flow problems. (prereq: ME 317 or equivalent, ME 300 or equivalent)
