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 |
