KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)

Explains basic fluid properties like viscosity, surface tension, capillarity
Analyzes fluids at rest using integral and differential calculus, including pressure variation, forces and moments on plane surfaces, and buoyancy.
Applies mathematical analysis to describe kinematics of fluids
Applies systems and control volume methods based on mass, momentum, and energy conservation, as appropriate, to the analysis and design of engineering fluids systems.
Applies basics of dimensional analysis and similarity in experimental analysis of Fluid Mechanics problems
Calculates pressure losses in laminar and turbulent flow in pipes, calculates local losses in pipe networks
Applies differential analysis to obtain solutions to potential and boundary-layer flows
Calculates lift and drag forces acting on 2D and 3D bodies
