Advanced Thermal Fluid Measurement Science and Engineering

In this lecture, measurement aspects of thermal fluid science and engineering field will be discussed on their principle, features and applications. The lecture includes topics on thermal fluid phenomena, relevant spatio-temporal scales, fundamentals of measurement science, uncertainty analysis, limitation of measurement, fundamentals of optics and lasers, features of measurement techniques, multi-dimensional measurement techniques, highly spatially resolved measurement techniques. In the lecture, opportunities will be provided for researching, considering and discussing the solutions for thermal fluid engineering problems. The students will acquire the detailed knowledge on thermal fluid science and engineering based on measurement science and extensive overview on advanced measurement techniques. The lecture will be held online in 2021.

The final score is evaluated based on intermediate report (40%) and final report (60%). Credit will be given only when the score is equal or over 60% out of 100 % in total. The level of acquiring the credit (60%) corresponds to the ability (1) to understand the needs of measurements for scientific and engineering problems in thermal fluid phenomena, (2) to have extensive knowledge on measurement and uncertainty, (3) to have extensive knowledge on measurement techniques used for thermal fluid science and engineering field, and (4) to have an overview on leading edge measurement techniques for thermal fluid science and engineering.

The lecture materials are distributed through the scomb system. Reference books, papers and information sources are provided in the course. Most of them are electronically accessible via the SIT library. No specific textbook is throughout in the course.

Prerequisite knowledge
Undergraduate knowledge of hydrodynamics/fluid mechanics (possibly including basics of turbulent flow) and thermodynamics/heat transfer (Those who do not have the prerequisite knowledge are advised not to enroll in this course.)

Preparation
The students are expected to learn the basic ideas on the content before the lecture for understanding. The students are encouraged to think applications of the measurement techniques for their own needs.

Advice
- This course is premised on the regular attendance of students in the lecture.
- The students are expected to be involved in the lecture, practice and homework.
- The students should regularly check the scomb system for obtaining the lecture materials.
- Questions are welcomed during the classes.
