Fluid Mechanics (SETK2233)

The course will introduce the fundamental principles underlying fluid behaviour, hydraulics, hydrodynamics, internal and external flows and its analysis of engineering applications for the design of simple hydraulic components especially pump. The course covers the physics of fluid, classification of flow, fluid statics, fluid dynamics, the application of Bernoulli’s, continuity, and momentum equations, friction flow in pipes includes the use of Moody chart, flow metering, pump, dimensional analysis and similarity.
