Course Name: AS5440 : Hydrodynamic Stability,Transition and Flow Control

Description: Introduction to linear instability and transition. Recent developments in instability methods? transient growths, global analysis, optimization and feedback mechanisms. Routes to turbulence, factors affecting different mechanisms and relaminarization. Methods to achieve transition delay, lift augmentation, separation prevention, turbulence suppression, noise abatement and other flow control strategies. Transition control: wall heating and cooling, wall motion, suction and blowing etc. Separation control: velocity profile modifiers, shaping, heat transfer, turbulators, etc. Drag reduction: reduction of nearwall momentum, Toms effect, etc. Recent developments in flow control.
