Course Objectives
The primary objective of this course is to give students the fundamentals of hypersonic flow which is encountered at the extreme high speed flight such as during the atmospheric entry of space vehicles and the propelled flight of missiles. This course will be offered as a technical elective course to students who have interest in high-speed aerodynamics.
Course Content
General characterization of hypersonic flow, inviscid hypersonic flow, high temperature effects.
Course Learning Outcomes
Abilities to use analytical and numerical methods for the analysis of hypersonic flow
An ability to formulate, simplify and solve hypersonic flow problems.
