    At 9:10 I think it would be '(a) backwards & (b) forwards' rather than '(a) forwards & (b) backwards', because ∂p/∂x is equal to (p_2,1-p_1,1) / Δx at u staggered grid (1,1) of (b). This is defined as forwards at 15:26. Could you check this?

    ¿Es correcto usar el mismo mallado del dominio computacional adyacente a la pared, para tubo hidráulicamente liso que para hidráulicamente rugoso, solo cambiando el parámetro de rugosidad en la pared?. Is it correct to use the same meshing of the computational domain adjacent to the wall, for hydraulically smooth pipe and for hydraulically rough pipe, only changing the roughness parameter on the wall?

    Interesting starting slides about the pressure gradient, but the pictures and the discussion are not really correct. The pressure is computed and stored at each face but the normal points in whatever direction is determined by the discretization method used by the solver, . CFX and Fluent are different in this detail.

    8:51 It's unclear whether Ks (equivalent sand-grain roughness height) refers to the diameter of the sand grains used, or to the height of protrusion of those grains. Surely, the grains must have some depth of embedment into the substrate. Is this depth ignored?

    Hey Aidan, Thank You very much for this amazing lecture!! I had a doubt... Isn't internal energy equal to "c_v * T" rather than "c_p * T", which is instead for enthalpy?? Then why are we using "c_p * T" for internal energy here?? If anyone can help, please do...

    What a wonderful lecture series. Once again, well done! I do have one ambiguity that I'm trying to work through: if we're considering compressible flow, and our Mach number is greater than 1, shouldn't our characteristic speed be either the maximum velocity in the cells or the maximum velocity at the boundaries, rather than the speed of sound? For example, for a Mach number of 2, shouldn't the local velocity be twice the speed of sound? If we're aiming to be conservative by taking the greatest representative speed, shouldn't we use the local velocity (U_cell) in this situation?

    Thanks, Aiden! It is a fantastic video that helped me a lot to understand this model, but there's one question: as it is mentioned in the papers, this model is not Galilean invariant, but I'll find many papers using this model to model moving body problems like Darrieus wind turbines with dynamic mesh approach, isn't that a mistake? I understand why it's not correct to use MRF, but I can't understand why it's okay to use dynamic mesh when using this turbulence model.
