Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
The course applies the elements of fluid mechanics for the analysis and the design in aerodynamics and hydrodynamics of common industrial situations of unsteady flows in pipes, of turbomachinery, aeronautics and propellers. The students will be able to: Explain and represent the behaviour of some transient flows in pipes (water hammer); Apply the principles for the design and the preliminary draft of turbomachinery; Determine the aerodynamic behaviour of aircraft and develop a critical understanding of the factors influencing the performance and limitations of flight dynamics; Identify the operating principles and design of propellers.
UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance
Applied and Industrial Fluid Mechanics: Transients phenomena in pipes and water hammer; Study and design of axial turbomachines: Profile cascade, velocity triangles, characteristic curves, optimum performance, load criteria, blade twisting, technique for preliminary draft design, losses, rotating stall, compressibility effects; Elements of flight aerodynamics (forces, aerodynamic coefficients, polar, gliding, finite wing, propulsion, level flight, straight climb, turn, limit of manoeuvrability, takeoff, landing); Study of propellers, Rankine-Froude, blade element theroy and and BEM (Blade Element Momentum).
Prior Experience
Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics; Aerodynamics; Fundamentals of Fluid Machinery; Structural and Stress Analysis; Fundamentals of Heat Transfer.

I-FLMA-006 | The exam takes place on a half-day during the session. The oral examination is carried out without the help of class notes. The exam takes place on a half-day during the session. To assess the degree of assimilation and of knowledge of the subject (not a pure memory reproduction of relationships and content learned by heart), the examination consists of two questions drawn lots: - A general question of theory for 50% of the final mark; - A question of the form of an exercise from another part of the course and accounting for the remaining 50% of the final mark. The answer to these questions is prepared the blackboard, sometimes on paper for the exercise, and then exposed orally by the student. Each year, the list of chapters and the content to be learned for the oral examination is provided to students on the intranet WEB site. Unless explicitly stated in this list, the content for the examination is all the elements seen during the course and included in the copy of the slides made as class notes available for the students. The theoretical question is a question of synthesis that covers one of the fundamental chapters of the course. The main demand is the ability to summarize the main principles related to the question asked, where should dominate by the use of fluid mechanics laws, though process, logic, physical interpretation, common sense and justification of the relationships and physical behaviours presented. The exercise makes a direct appeal to the notions of the course and is presented in a form similar to those presented in the course and resolved during the exercise and practical work labs. The time spent by the student for the preparation and the presentation is about two hours and three quarters (90 minutes preparation for the question about theory and 30 minutes for the exercise). |
