  • English

Description

This course introduces the fundamental principles and applications of fluid mechanics, which is essential for understanding many mechanical and industrial engineering systems. Topics covered include fluid properties, fluid statics, kinematics, and dynamics. Students will explore the basic equations of fluid flow such as continuity, energy, and momentum equations, as well as dimensional analysis and similitude. The course emphasizes analytical problem-solving, physical interpretation of fluid phenomena, and the application of governing equations to engineering problems related to pipe flow, pressure measurement, and fluid machinery.

Program

Bachelor Degree in Mechanical Engineering (Energy and Power Engineering) (160 Cr.)

Objectives

  • The subject aims at providing the student with the fundamental knowledge of incompressible flow, and easily understanding the basic principle of hydrostatics and hydrodynamics.
