Course Name: Viscous Fluid Flow

Course abstract

Viscous fluid flow covers the fundamentals of fluid mechanics from an advanced point of view with emphasis on the mathematical treatment of viscosity effects in Newtonian fluid flows. This course will cover the derivation of Navier-Stokes equations, exact solutions for simplified configurations, creeping flows , Stokess first and second problems, laminar boundary layers, wall-bounded and free-shear boundaries and hydrodynamic stability with an introduction to turbulence.

Prof. Amaresh Dalal

Dr. Amaresh Dalal is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati. He received his Ph.D. degree from Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur in 2009 and he was Post-doctoral Research Associate at Purdue University from Sep 2008 - Dec 2009. He has research interests in the area of Computational Fluid Dynamics and Heat Transfer, Finite Volume Methods and Unstructured Grid Techniques, Multiphase Flows. Dr. Dalal is now profoundly involved in developing a general purpose, versatile and robust computational fluid dynamics solver over hybrid unstructured grid which can solve a wide range of real-life fluid flow, heat transfer, and problems involving transport phenomena over complex geometries. He received Prof KN Seetharamu Medal and Prize for the Best Young Researcher in Heat Transfer-2017 from Indian Society of Heat and Mass Transfer.
