CFD (AE 2402) Syllabus

This document outlines the course objectives and units of study for a computational fluid dynamics course. The objective is to study fluid flow using computational methods. The five units cover fundamental concepts, grid generation, discretization methods, finite element techniques, and finite volume techniques. Discretization methods include explicit and implicit time dependent methods for solving compressible and incompressible fluid flow problems. Finite element and finite volume techniques are also introduced for computational fluid dynamics.
