MAE 5230 Intermediate Fluid Dynamics with Computational Fluid Dynamics

Taken in Spring '22, this class is focused on a building deeper understanding of fluid mechanics past the introductory level through simulation and classical theory. The following projects and assignments were completed as a part of the simulation portion of the course.

CFD Car Design Project

The objective of this project was to take a base car design and utilize CFD methods in ANSYS software to improve aerodynamic efficiency.

CFD Airplane Analysis

The objective of this assignment was to analyze and visualize the various components of the supersonic flow around an airplane to gain an intuition for compressible flow problems.
