Announcements

• Next Tuesday (March 12th). Department meeting.– Ms. Liron’s office hours start at 2:15pm

• TAKE NOTES! fill in the blanks!

Exam2 – Coding Review

3

Topics

• Library functions: ceil(), floor(), round(), mod()• Loops

– while– for

• Arrays – Create: [], rand()– Analyze: sum(), prod(), min(), max(), mean()– Dimensioning: length(), size(), numel()– Slicing/referencing: vector(k), matrix(r,c), array(_:_)– Concatenating: []– Traversing: for k = 1:____– Deleting: =[];

• Plotting basics– plot(x,y) %plots y vs. x graph

What can you put in the test section?

• The photograph shows a stainless steel model of a Mk I which was used in 1941 for wind tunnel investigations into high speed dive characteristics.

Models (3/3)

• This is the motivation for the realization of an extensive wind tunnel model of the city part "Kleinbasel" at the scale 1:300. The model covers an area of a bit less than 3 km² of urban roughness densely covered by over 3 200 houses as it is typical for Basel and other european urban environments of comparable size.

Random question…

• What happens to the water in a tube?

Velocity Distribution

• Velocity is linked to the pressure in the tube

– Where is the total pressure (in inches of water)– Where is the static pressure (in inches of water). That is the reference

point of the tube, when the wind tunnel is off.– is the absolute air temperature in Rankine (not Celsius, not

Fahrenheit).

14

Requirements – Method 1

• Assume the static pressure is 32 inches, and the temperature is 78F (537Rankine)

• Let the user indicate how many pitot tubes were recorded. Trap when invalid. It should be above 5.

• Loop to generate the table of data. Store all data in one array, as values are calculated. – Total pressure: prompt user number between 30 and 32 inches.

• (Assume valid inputs given at this time)– Calculate velocity associated each time

• Display the table, with headers.• Plot the local velocities vs. the pitot tube number• Calculate the min, max, and average velocity.

• These are just guidelines

• Keywords?• Algorithm ideas?

Requirements – Method 2

• Assume the static pressure is 32 inches, and the temperature is 78F (537Rankine)

• Let the user indicate how many pitot tubes were recorded. Trap when invalid. It should be above 5.

• Without a loop, create the table.– Total pressure: Generate random floats between 30 and 32 inches.

• Display the table with headers.• Plot the local velocities vs. the pitot tube number• Calculate the min, max, and average velocity.

STUDY HARD!

• Practice tonight. • Take the notes you just took, and code the example!

• The more practice, the easier it gets!
