Course content
Dimensional analysis and similarity. One-dimensional compressible flows in pipes and nozzles. Critical condition and choling. Normal shocks. Two-dimensional compressible flows. Oblique shocks. Prandtl-Meyer expansion. Open channels flows. Optimum cross section. Critical flow and hydraulic jumps. Basic theries for hydraulic machines.
Learning outcome
The course provides the student with knowledge about:
- Similarity and dimensional analysis
- Compressibility effects
- One and two-dimensional gas dynamics
- Shocks and expansion waves
- Flows in open channels
- Hydraulic jumps
- Introduction to hydraulic machines
The course gives the student knowledge about:
- Problems associated with compressibility effects
- Flows with free surfaces
- Basic knowledge of hydraulic pumps and turbines
Skills:
The course should enable the student to:
- Calculate compressible flows in ducts and nozzles
- Calculate flows with shocks and expansion waves both in ducts and for immersed bodies
- Calculate the flow in open channels where the shape and inclination varies along the flow
- Calculate losses associated with hydraulic jumps
- Perform calculations of the main geometry and performance of pumps and turbines
General competence:
The course should give the student:
- When the student has finished the course, he/she shall have general knowledge about gas dynamics and channel flows where discontinuities may exist
- The student will also have a fundamental understanding of the transfer of forces between the fluid and a rotating machine
Learning methods and activities
Lectures, self study and exercises, half of which must be accepted in order to be able to take the exam. The lectures and exercises are in English. Students are free to choose Norwegian or English for written assessments. If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may be changed from written to oral.
Compulsory assignments
- Exercises
Recommended previous knowledge
Knowledge corresponding to TEP4100 Fluid Mechanics.
