Tópicos Avançados em Mecânica dos Fluidos

Knowing how to interpret results expressed by dimensionless parameters as well as knowing how to express results in this way, not being restricted to the area of ​​fluid mechanics. Understand the issue of similarity in modeling situations of practical interest.

Learn and know how to apply knowledge that allows you to deal with the effects of roughness and boundary layer separations. Knowing how to apply appropriate theoretical tools to different regimes (laminar, turbulent) or flow regions. In this sense, knowing the fundamentals of turbulence and: knowing how to determine and using integral boundary layer parameters; achieve dexterity in manipulating the differential equations that govern the flows to reach results that allow analyzing them; know the effects of the longitudinal pressure gradient on the development of boundary layers; knowing how to use pressure coefficients for bodies immersed in flows, understanding and respecting ranges of applicability.

Learning and knowing how to apply the fundamentals of the study of flows where the effects of compressibility cannot be neglected. Know the phenomenon of choking, the operation of convergent-divergent nozzles, and shock waves, and know how to perform calculations in this context, also using tabulated information. Knowing how to solve fluid mechanics problems in the areas mentioned above, within the broad scope of Engineering and, in particular, mechanical engineering.

Develop skills in: information processing, autonomous work and self-learning, problem solving at engineering level, application of knowledge to new situations.
