• Semester 5, position 4

The aim of the course is that students become familiar with the basic laws of aerodynamics and its application in solving practical problems. Particularly with the specific features in the compressible flow. Students will learn the basic aerodynamic aircraft configurations for different speeds, as well as the basics of aerodynamics of the vehicle. In the course students obtain basic knowledge in the field of experimental aerodynamics and its application in aerodynamic testing of the aeronautical and non-aeronautical objects.

Mastering the course, the student acquires knowledge in the field of aerodynamics, with emphasis on the domain of compressible flow, as well as an understanding of the basic aerodynamic configurations of aircraft and aerodynamics of the road vehicle. He also mastered the basics of experimental aerodynamics and its application not only in the aeronautic, but also in other branches of engineering.

Lesson 1: Modeling of the flow field Lesson 2: Compressible flow and waves in compressible flow Lesson 3: Aerodynamic configurations of the aircrafts and road vehicles Lesson 4: Subsonic, transonic and supersonic wind tunnels Lesson 5: Methods of the measurement in wind tunnel tests

In the practical part of teaching it is demonstrated the application of the theoretical law, by solving and analysis of selected numerical examples. The practical work of students is realized by compulsory exercises and by a virtual workshop available 24 hours (MOODLE). In the virtual workshop for students are available professor's lecture notes, assignments for practice and tests for knowledge check. The practical part of the course includes consultations for homework, students work collectively within the small groups (up to five students per group).

Without prerequisites, but it is recommended to pass the exam of the course Aerodynamic constructions previously.

Lectures in electronic form, internet resources.
