Tutor:

Tomáš Hyhlík

Supervisor:

Department of Fluid Dynamics and Thermodynamics

Synopsis:

The study subject aim is to expand the students knowledge gained from the previous subject Thermomechanics Alfa. The attention is focussed namely on fluids characteristics, various description methods of fluid dynamics under low and high Re number values, boundary layer characteristics and its stability and complex flow characteristics for incompressible

flow.
