CBE 2420
Transcript Abbreviation:
Transport I
Course Description:
The transport of energy, mass and momentum is essential to the function of all non-living and living systems. This course will serve as an introduction to momentum transport (i.e., fluid mechanics), and will primarily focus on the basic mechanisms of momentum transport and its application to the analysis of real world flows.
