Fluid dynamics and heat and mass transport phenomena are important academic areas for designing and controlling the system with fluid in various engineering fields. Fluid and heat and mass transfer can be often seen in various practical operations in company. Thus, understanding on fluid dynamics and transport phenomena is indispensable to acutual work on heat and fluid analysis. The goal of this course is to train students with acquirement in the skill for design and control of practical fluid phenomena.

This course is open as the class of

"Advanced Course on Interdisciplinary Engineering 3"

for Master's Course students and

"Advanced Course on Interdisciplinary Engineering C"

for Doctoral Course students.

In spite of importance of fluid dynamic and transport phenomena, these courses are gradually loosing the chances offered in lectures for undergraduate students due to the recent diversity of curricula. This Fluid Transport Course consists of four sub-courses; Basic Fluid Dynamics, Heat and Fluid Phenomena Based on Statistical Mechanics, Turbulent Transport Phenomena and Heat and Mass Transfer. Professors from Departments of Architecture, Civil Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Chemical Science and Engineering cooperate each other in offering this course. Those who will take this course are desired to finish the basic courses in undergraduate level such as fluid dynamics, hydraulics and transport phenomena because advanced and special contents will be involved in this course. However, this is not always obligation. Strongly-motivated students are highly welcome.

Lectures are given on four sub-courses such as Basic Fluid Dynamics, Heat and Fluid Phenomena Based on Statistical Mechanics, Turbulent Transport Phenomena and Heat and Mass Transfer. Brief explanation on each sub-course is as follows.
