Advanced heat transferts and fluid flow

Presentation

Viscous Fluid Flows :

Lectures and Tutorials

• Intro: viscosity, fluid particle, deformation, Eulerian and Lagrangian reference system
• Fundamental eqs : Conservation of Mass, Linear Momentum (Navier-Stokes eq) and Energy, dimensional analysis and similarity
• Internal flows: Analytical solution of the fundamental equations, friction factor, head losses, hydraulic circuits
• External flows: laminar and turbulent boundary layers, forces on immersed bodies, elementary aerodynamics.

Heat and Mass Transfer :

Lectures and tutorials

• unsteady conduction
• additional external convection (tube batteries, impacting jets, mass transfer and evaporation)
• internal flow convection.

Numerical simulation lab work: introduction to Ansys Fluent code and realization of a project related to the course.

Objectives

At the end of this course, the student should have understood and will be able to explain the basics allowing to approach a phenomenon involving real (viscous) fluids. He will be able to tackle situations involving more or less complex heat and mass transfers.

The student will also be able to conduct a numerical simulation with Ansys Fluent code.

Needed prerequisite

Inviscid fluid dynamics (I3ICFT01 – Fluid Mechanics 1)

Introduction to heat transfer (I3ICFT01 – Heat Transfer 1)

Form of assessment

The evaluation of outcome prior learning is made as a continuous training during the semester. According ot the teaching, the assessment will be different: as a written exam, an oral exam, a record, a written report, peers review...
