Applied Fluid Dynamics The methods of fluid dynamics play an important role in the description of a chain of events, involving the release, spreading and dilution of dangerous fluids in the environment. Tunnel ventilation systems and strategies are studied, which must meet severe requirements during normal operation and in emergency situations (tunnel fires etc.).
Objective
Generally applicable methods in fluid dynamics and gas dynamics are illustrated and practiced using selected current examples.
Content
Often experts fall back on the methodology of fluid dynamics when involved in the construction of environmentally friendly processing and incineration facilities, as well as when choosing safe transport and storage options for dangerous materials. As a result of accidents, but also in normal operations, dangerous gases and liquids may escape and be transported further by wind or flowing water. There are many possible forms that the resulting damage may take, including fire and explosion when flammable substances are mixed. The topics covered include: Emissions of liquids and gases from containers and pipelines, evaporation from pools and vaporization of gases kept under pressure, the spread and dilution of waste gas plumes in the wind, deflagration and detonation of inflammable gases, fireballs in gases held under pressure, pollution and exhaust gases in tunnels (tunnel fires etc.)
Lecture notes
not available
Prerequisites / Notice
Requirements: successful attendance at lectures "Fluiddynamik I und II", "Thermodynamik I und II"
Performance assessment
Performance assessment information (valid until the course unit is held again)
The performance assessment is only offered in the session after the course unit. Repetition only possible after re-enrolling.
Mode of examination
written 90 minutes
Additional information on mode of examination
The successful attendance of at least one out of two written examinations (Klausurübungen, midterm and at the end of the semester, no grade, only pass/fail) in addition to the session examination is part of the requirements to obtain a final grade. In case a student does not pass at least one out of the two written examinations (Klausurübungen, midterm and at the end of the semester), she/he must deregister from the session examination to avoid being classified as "no show". The final grade does depend only on the performance in the session examination.
Written aids
