Initially, I was not intrigued by the comment since, after all, who among us has not used a bit of hyperbole while making an argument. Take a moment to think of the times you have used ‘always’ or ‘never’ to describe the occurrence of ...

Since there are three differential equations to be solved in a two-D incompressible laminar flow problem, there are three residuals to be monitored for convergence: continuity, x-velocity, and y-velocity. The default convergence criteria are 0.001 for all three of these. Experience has shown that ...

On the other hand, though a method by free fall (Fig. 1(b)) is more economical, the accuracy of installation of the blocks becomes a problem. The a ...

... Size and flexibility can therefore have strong effects on the ratio of inertial to hydrodynamic forces. A large, flexible structure can move with the flow for a time, thereby reducing drag and lift. But this reduction in force can be had only at the expense of acquiring momentum, and the bill must b ...

Conclusion From these examples and from the discussion of the linear velocity fields described by (3), we see that the curl vx (x, y)−uy (x, y) measures the amount of shear in the flow at the point (x, y). In other words, the curl at (x, y) is a measure of how much faster or slower nearby fluid part ...

Aerodynamics



Aerodynamics, from Greek ἀήρ aer (air) + δυναμική (dynamics), is a branch of Fluid dynamics concerned with studying the motion of air, particularly when it interacts with a solid object, such as an airplane wing. Aerodynamics is a sub-field of fluid dynamics and gas dynamics, and many aspects of aerodynamics theory are common to these fields. The term aerodynamics is often used synonymously with gas dynamics, with the difference being that ""gas dynamics"" applies to the study of the motion of all gases, not limited to air.Formal aerodynamics study in the modern sense began in the eighteenth century, although observations of fundamental concepts such as aerodynamic drag have been recorded much earlier. Most of the early efforts in aerodynamics worked towards achieving heavier-than-air flight, which was first demonstrated by Wilbur and Orville Wright in 1903. Since then, the use of aerodynamics through mathematical analysis, empirical approximations, wind tunnel experimentation, and computer simulations has formed the scientific basis for ongoing developments in heavier-than-air flight and a number of other technologies. Recent work in aerodynamics has focused on issues related to compressible flow, turbulence, and boundary layers, and has become increasingly computational in nature.
