12540 Environmental Hydrodynamics - Turbulence, Dispersion, Stratified Flows
Danish title: Miljø hydrodynamik - turbulens, dispersion, lagdelte strømninger
Language:  English    ECTS-creditpoints:  10   
Type:  civil engineering course, open university
Class schedule:   E4
Exam schedule:   F4-B (Jun 06 2002), E4-B (Dec 19 2001)
Recommended semester:  7th - 9th semester
Scope and form:  Lectures, exercises, larger assignments and laboratory exercises
Evaluation:  Oral exam and approval of reports
Examination:  13-scale
Prerequisites:  57105
Aim:  To give a thorough theoretical understanding of the flow processes in turbulent boundary layers, diffusion / dispersion processes in turbulent flows and the processes related to stratified flows.
Contents:  Processes in turbulent flows (energy and momentum transfers), properties of turbulent boundary layers, dispersion via diffusion, stratified flows, dynamics of and mixing in stratified flows.
Remarks:  The course is a merger of the former courses "Turbulence Theory" and "Environmental Hydraulics, Stratified Flows".
