Course Purpose and Content

Course Objectives: To give students the basic concepts of incompressible aerodynamics and to enable them to solve basic aerodynamic problems. To give students the basic concepts of incompressible aerodynamics and to enable them to solve basic aerodynamic problems.
Course Content: This course covers the basic principles of aerodynamics. The student studies the basic equations of fluid mechanics and the behaviour of fluid flowing over airfoils and various bodies. The student also learns about the development of aerospace and vehicle aerodynamics.

Learning Outcomes
