CHEME 6240 - Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Heat Transfer

Spring. 3 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: CHEME 3230-CHEME 3240 or equivalent. Formerly CHEME 7310.

D.L. Koch.

Topics include derivation of conservation equations; conductive heat transfer; low Reynolds number fluid dynamics; lubrication theory; inviscid fluid dynamics; boundary layer theory; forced convection; and introduction to non-Newtonian fluid mechanics (polymeric liquids and suspensions), microfluidics, stability analysis, and turbulent flow.
