2. Announcements Tests will be graded by next Monday, can do retake finals week if needed Project design documents are due today. Turn in tomorrow (Tuesday) by midnight in order not to lose points (turn in hard copy or email to svmoore@utep.edu)svmoore@utep.edu Final exam period is Friday, December 12, 1:00-3:45pm; Final projects are due then. 2

3. Understanding Fluid Flows Dynamics causing the flow (forces) –Pressure, buoyancy, inertia, viscous forces, surface forces…. Etc. Effects of these forces on the flow (Flow and fluid properties) –Velocity, acceleration, vorticity –Viscosity, temperature, scalar concentration, density …. Etc. 3

4. Why Flow Visualization Understand flow phenomena Verify model or theory results Easier measurements To get a priori knowledge of a solution 4

5. What we need to visualize Stream lines – a line, tangent to which at any given instant is the velocity vector at that point Streak lines – locus of particles which have passed through a prescribed point during a specified time interval Path lines – locus of points traversed by a given fluid particle during some specified time interval Time lines – line joining different adjacent points at any instant of time 5

17. Computational Fluid Dynamics Simulates fluid flow by solving differential equations using numerical methods CFD has taken the place of wind tunnels for many evaluations of aircraft and, as computing power increases and computer models become more sophisticated, CFD will largely replace wind tunnels. 17
