Aim:
After the course the student must be able to explain common aerodynamic concepts and phenomenon, and how fundamental parameters like lift and drag are affected by geometry and flow conditions. The student must be able to explain possibilities and limitations with different aerodynamic flow models. Also, analyze and interpret results, and explain measurement of pressure and velocity for aerodynamic applications.
