Ce580 Outline

This document outlines the course contents, assignments, references, and grading for a computational techniques for fluid dynamics course. The course covers topics including finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and grid generation applied to solving partial differential equations that model fluid mechanics. It consists of 6 main sections on various numerical methods and their application to model equations and the Navier-Stokes equations. There are 10 homework assignments applying these techniques to problems like turbulent pipe and channel flows, wave motion, and cavity flows. Students will be evaluated based on homework, a midterm exam, and a final exam.
