ME 52100 - Air Quality Modeling

Prerequisite(s): ME 31200 FOR LEVEL UG WITH MIN. GRADE OF D-

Credit Hours: 3.00. This course is intended for the undergraduate and graduate engineer or scientist who is interested in the modeling of air pollution: the basic concepts of air quality and air pollution modeling; overview of practical and advanced approaches to air pollution modeling; evaluation and applications to air pollution related modeling. In order to obtain accurate assessments and forecasts of the effects of air contaminant dispersion, modeling based on solution of the nonlinear equations of fluid motion using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is a good choice. In this course, problems of engineering interest will be examined, related to both indoor and outdoor contaminant dispersion. Some of the homework problems will require use of a CFD code several source codes will be provided as well as access to commercial CFD codes. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer.
