The subject on Aeronautical Engineering focusses primarily on the engineering that goes behind air bound vehicles like planes, jets, etc. While there is an indepth theoretical knowledge in these papers, understanding the concepts would give a greater exposure to these concepts. Some topics taught under the paper of Aerodynamics are critical Mach number, drag divergence Mach number, super critical air foil, sound barrier, profile theory for two dimensional flap wing, compressibility effect on fuselage system, Kutta condition, its importance and diagrammatical representation , low speed flow over an airfoil, bound Vortex and Horse shoe vortex system, finite airfoil theory, transformation of circle into symmetric airfoil system, application or linearized to supersonic airfoil, aerodynamics of airfoil, infinite and finite wing, aerodynamics of fuselage system, Helmholtz’s laws for Vortex, Biot-Savart law for Vortex, derivation of equation for vortex wing, viscous flow past an airfoil, finite airfoil theory, Kelvin’s circulation theorem, vortex panel numerical method.
