FLUID MECHANICS

Catalog description

Fundamental physical and analytical principles of fluid mechanics through the understanding of the: conservation of mass, conservation of energy, and the conservation of momentum equations. A demonstration of the understanding of these fundamentals by solving problems dealing with: fluid properties, fluid statics, pressure on plane and curved surfaces, buoyancy and floatation, kinematics, systems, control volumes, conservation principles, ideal incompressible flow, impulse-momentum, and flow of a real fluid. Prerequisites: CIVE2000 and MATH1850 (4 credits) fall
