FSG3112 Turbulence
KTH Royal Institute of Technology
SG2214 Fluid Mechanics, or equivalent.
Fundamental phenomena and concepts. Statistical methods. Shear-flow turbulence and the turbulent boundary layer. CFD models for turbulent flow. The theory of isotropic and homogeneous turbulence.
The primary aim of the course is to give the students an overview of turbulent flow and turbulence.
After completing the course a student should be able to;
- use statistical methods to describe and analyse turbulent flow,
- describe and explain the lengthscale structure of turbulence, and
- use an understanding of turbulence to describe the strengths and weaknesses of common CFD models for turbulent flow.
- describe/give examples of how fluid dynamics research can adress aspects of sustainability
