Course Objectives: Develop a comprehension of the hydrostatic law, the theory of buoyancy, and the stability of a floating body by imparting fundamental knowledge of fluids, their properties, and their behavior under diverse internal and external flow conditions. To derive and implement the mass, momentum, and energy equation for fluid flow. Mass flow and velocity measurements are used to evaluate internal flow, primarily in piping systems. To provide problem-solving approaches using engineering software programs, with consideration for the aforementioned subjects.

Learning Outcomes

The students who have succeeded in this course;
1. Possess the understanding of fluid concept and the capacity to assess their properties when solving a problem.
2. Analyze the fluid statics and fluid kinematics-related problems.
3. Derive continuity, Bernoulli, general energy, and momentum equations for fluid-related problems.
4. Determine the kind of flow in applications involving internal flow and devise piping systems.
5. Possess the ability to develop a numerical model with engineering software tools to solve fluid mechanics problems.

Course Content

In this course, how to determine the basic properties of fluid, fluid statics and fluid kinematics problems are analyzed. In addition, continuity, Bernoulli, general energy and momentum equations are derived for different flow problems. Pipe design is carried out by determining the type of internal flow. An attempt is made to establish a numerical model for all these issues.
