Browse Hierarchy EMS713U: Advanced Aerodynamics of High Speed Flows

This module addresses advanced topics in compressible flows. Supersonic internal and external aerodynamics will be looked at in details including the design of supersonic inlets and outlets for minimum losses as used in high-speed aerospace vehicles, and advanced concepts of shock tubes as used for testing high supersonic and hypersonic flows. Examples of existing and new aerodynamic designs of high-speed aerospace vehicles as future supersonic transport aeroplanes and space launchers will be examined to illustrate the implementation of high-speed aerodynamics concepts.
