Course Objectives The course aims to introduce fundamentals of fluid mechanics, to train students in basic problem solving skills in hydrostatics and fluid dynamics, and make students aware of role of fluid mechanics in various engineering applications and design.
Textbook Fluid Mechanics by Frank White
Additional Literature
  • Fluid Mechanics by Yunus Cengel
Learning Outcomes After successful  completion of the course, the student will be able to:
  1. Define the physical properties of a fluid and to explain the consequence of such properties on fluid flow.
  2. Apply integral relations for a control volume to compute various fluid mechanics problems.
  3. Apply the conservation principles of mass, linear momentum, and energy to fluid flow systems.
  4. Compute various problems of fluid flow in ducts.
  5. Compute the lift, drag, and moments acting on simple aerodynamic profiles and shapes in inviscid, steady fluid flows.
  6. Apply CFD software to compute fluid dynamics problem with moderate level of complexity
Teaching Methods Class discussions with examples. Active tutorial sessions combined with lab work for engaged learning and continuous feedback on progress.
