Welcome to the Department of Aviation Engineering Website. I encourage our students to browse these pages, where they find detailed information about our undergraduate and graduate educational programs, our faculty members, their research programs, and the broad range of activities underway in the Department.

Aviation Engineering is a new department in Kurdistan/Iraq that will change the world in which we live and work for a better future, hopefully in the near future we can make startup programs for students to make their own projects with the contribution of other students abroad as a shared project.

We strive to be at the forefront of research, to educate our students in core fundamentals, and to engage students with emerging technologies and their applications. Our intention is to keep close interaction between faculty and students at all levels. The education and research missions in our department are enhanced by excellent collaborations with the deanery and all other departments in the College of Engineering.

I hope that you will explore our programs and the research interests of the faculty. We are always interested in new opportunities for collaboration, and new ideas for our talented students.

Mission 

The mission of the Department of Aviation Engineering is to provide quality education to prepare nationally and internationally competitive undergraduate students for a successful career in Aviation engineering; to provide advanced skills and knowledge in Aerodynamic, Engine, and Fuel in sub-areas of Aviation engineering for graduate students; and to provide service to the university, engineering profession, and the public. The objectives are: 1-To ensure that graduates will have a mastery of fundamental knowledge, problem-solving skills, engineering experimental abilities, and capabilities necessary for entering an Aviation engineering career and/or graduate school. 2-To produce graduates that have the knowledge and skills necessary for identifying and assessing design alternatives and the related social, economic, environmental, and public safety impacts. 3-To produce graduates who have verbal and written communication skills necessary for successful professional practice. 4-To prepare graduates to function effectively on teams. 5-To prepare graduates for professional licensure, leadership roles, and life-long learning.

Vision 

The Department of Aviation Engineering will try to develop internationally prominent educational and research programs in cooperation with our students, to ensure sustainable prosperity and quality of life. The department will also excel in undergraduate and graduate instruction, research in all sub-areas of Aviation engineering in the near future, and service to the public consistently. The Department will make significant contributions to the social development of the region and nation, through our leadership in engineering education.

Department Facilities:

1.Aerodynamics laboratories:

 

Item 1: Subsonic Wind Tunnel Vertical Aerodynamic Trainer

This experiment demonstrates the use of a Pitot-static tube, and investigates the application of

Bernoulli’s theorem to flow along a convergent-divergent passage. (made in India).

 

 

 

Item 2: AERODYNAMICS TRAINER

The HM 225 Aerodynamics Trainer can be used to carry out extensive experiments on the subject of aerodynamics.

Together with corresponding accessories: Experiments from the field of flow around bodies –

Velocity measurement of flows with Pitot tube – Boundary layer analysis on a flat plate with incident flow – Flow resistances of bodies –

Demonstration of the Coanda effect – Visualisation of streamlines. (made in German).

 

Item 3: Subsonic Wind Tunnel Horizontal Aerodynamic Trainer

The Apparatus is a small wind tunnel designed for bench top operation, with

a square, transparent working section and a variable-speed fan for wind speed control.

Wind tunnels are a useful tool for studying air flow around bodies.

This apparatus uses for undergraduate tests.

 

Item 4: FLIGHT DEMONSTRATION WIND TUNNEL

This apparatus is used to study of fluid flow & aerodynamics in a wind tunnel.

he aim is the practical investigation of longitudinal stability and control of the aircraft to

demonstrate behavior during take-off level flight and landing.

 

 

2. Aircraft Engines laboratories:

 

Item 1: TURBO JET ENGINE CUT SECTION – MOTORISED

 

 

 

The turbojet is an air breathing jet engine, typically used in aircraft.

 

 

Item 2: GAS TURBINE JET ENGINE

 

 

The ET 796 trainer is used to demonstrate and

study the function and behavior of a gas turbine in the model scale.

 

 

 

3. Fluid laboratories

Item 1: FLOW NOZZLE METER TRAINER

 

This apparatus is used to measure the discharge through Nozzle meter and

to determine the Coefficient of discharge for Nozzle meter.

 

 

 

Item 2: NOZZLES FANS AND COMPRESSORS

 

This apparatus is used to demonstrate the thermodynamics and

fluid mechanics of the adiabatic expansion of air through subsonic

and supersonic nozzles.
