ME 5371 - Introduction to Gas Dynamics and Analysis of Propulsion Systems


Credits: 3

Introduction to the mechanics and thermodynamics of high-speed compressible flows with application to the design of propulsion systems. Focus is on one-dimensional and quasi one-dimensional compressible flow, normal shocks, oblique shocks, and two-dimensional flow method of characteristics. Also includes analysis of air-breathing propulsion systems and design of air-breathing propulsion systems components such as inlets and nozzles. Prerequisites: ME 2342  and C or better in CEE 2331 /ME 2331 .
