Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics (GSE264/GSE353)

This module is designed to provide students with an understanding of the fundamental concepts, basic equations of fluid mechanics; Fluid static's: pressures including different pressure measuring devices, and hydrostatic forces on submerged surfaces. Introducing the fundamental conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy with engineering applications. Flow in pipes and the differences between laminar and turbulent flow and how to select the pump or fan to match a piping network. Study of different turbo machinery including pumps, fans and turbines in brief.
