41822 Experimental Methods in Fluid Mechanics
Danish title: Eksperimentelle metoder i fluid mekanik
Language:  Danish    ECTS-creditpoints:  5   
Type:  , open university
Class schedule:   januar
Scope and form:  During 3-week period (January and June). Full time laboratory work (including 14 lectures).
Evaluation:  Oral presentation and approval of reports
Examination:  Pass/fail
Previous course:  77367
Prerequisites:  77256 / 41311 / 12520
No credit points with:  C7135
Aim:  To give an introduction to modern measuring techniques for determining velocity, pressure, temperature, heat diffusion, etc. for fluids under stationary as well as nonstationary conditions, including the design of complex measuring systems along with data acquisition systems for application to applied thermodynamics, fluid mechanics and heat transfer.
Contents:  Statistical and dynamical properties of various measuring systems. Transducers and systems for determining of pressure, velocity, flow, temperature, heat transport, concentration etc.. Electronic processing of signals. Data recording and processing. Error theory. The theoretical basis is illustrated through experiments in which typical fluid mechanical measuring systems are used, such as hot-wire and Laser-Doppler anemometers.
