Body flow and aerodynamics
Master’s in MB (summer semester only, 4 SWS)
Registration for the lecture is required (by email to burgmann(at)uni-wuppertal.de)

- How can the forces acting on a body in a flow field be described?
- What implications does this have for aerodynamics?
Contents
- Lift & drag
- Frictionless flows and applications of potential theory
- Boundary layer flows and friction
- Flow separation
