Course Description

Among the fluid dynamics, aerodynamics is the study that deals mainly with the flow around the wings of the airplane.
Because we address the flow around the airplane that flies sufficiently below the speed of sound and the fluid viscosity of the air is low, the air can be treated as non-viscous incompressible flow. In other words, the airflow can be treated as a flow of ideal fluid.
By dealing with the flow around the wings of the aircraft as a stream of ideal fluid, the fundamental law of the forces such as lift generated in the wing has been revealed. The purpose of this course is to understand the flow of the ideal fluid.

Course Objectives

The goal of this lecture is to learn the flow of the ideal fluid forming the basis of aerodynamics, and to understand the principle of the lift generated in the wings of the airplane.

Grading Policy

Exercises will be given at the end of each lectures, and the answer for these exercises should be reported by the next lecture.
The attendance will be checked by using these reports and the evaluation of this course will be partially done by these reports(20%).
The evaluation of this course will mainly done by the final exam (80%).

Requirements(Assignments)

Read the textbook well in advance. Also, since the next lecture material will be posted on the LMS, read it at the same time (1.5 hours).
I will tell you the scope of the next lecture in the lecture of the previous week.
As written in "Grading Policy", students have to solve the questions and submit the answer by the lecture of the next week (1.5 hours).

Note

Anyway, I will give lectures that conform to the textbook. Read the textbook thoroughly and try to understand all the exercises at the end of each chapter.
Regarding the solution to the model and the way to think about it, we will give feedback via lecture at the next week of submission.
