Fluid Mechanics
BIEe29

Description
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE: The aim of the course is to introduce the students with the basics of the Fluid Mechanics, and to provide them with new, practical skills related to the experimental studies of fluid flows, as well as with the analysis and assessment of various fluid flow systems.
DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE: The main topics concern: introduction with the basic fluid properties; properties of ideal and real (viscous) fluids; measurement of basic flow parameters; Hydrostatics - surface and internal forces, pressure, fluid equilibrium under the action of external force fields; fluid flow kinematics - methods for mathematical description of the flow motion, streamlines and streamline surfaces; fluid dynamics - basic laws and derived dependencies, Euler’s equations, Navier-Stokes and Bernoulli equations; laminar and turbulent flows, boundary layer; hydraulic losses in fluid systems; resistance of streamlined bodies, lift and drag forces
