Visualization of Two-Dimensional Flows of an Ideal Fluid by Computer Technology

Abstract

The use of application software packages in courses on continuum mechanics is considered as part of the general concept of the use of computer technology in the educational process of engineering specialties at a university. Digital modeling allows you to get an idea of the numerical solution of complex problems of mathematical physics. The powerful capabilities of application programs, combined with a mathematical tool for numerical modeling and graphic post-processing, reproduce the functional relationships between various elements of knowledge. Graphic modeling allows the student in a visual form and in conditions similar to a laboratory experiment to get acquainted with the phenomenon being studied and independently conduct a functional comparison with the corresponding theoretical principles.
