Propulsive System Development

The subject Development of Propulsion Systems proposes the advanced study of propulsive systems in aeronautics. In the context of the syllabus of the Master in Aeronautical Engineering, the principal objective of the subject is to provide the student with those necessary skills for the exercise of the profession in the field of aeronautical propulsive systems.

The main issues that are developed in the framework of the subject can be summarized as: the study of engine performance and its variation with environmental and operating conditions, the analysis of the different types of existing engine and the testing and certification of the aeronautical engines.

Aerodynamics

Aerodynamics is a part of the mechanics focused on the study of the actions of the air on the objects that move inside. Obviously, aerodynamics is a fundamental discipline in the activity of the aeronautical engineer. External aerodynamics refers to the study of the air around the airplane and its elements, while the internal aerodynamics refers to the processes it undergoes in ducts or confined spaces, such as the interior of the engines.

In this course, the basic aerodynamic processes are explored with the intention of understanding the design principles of aerodynamic airfoils and wings. The course includes techniques to understand the difference between non-viscid and viscid flows, as well as between subsonic and supersonic ones.
