Course Purpose |
The purpose of this course is to understand the fundamental characteristics of fluid motions applied to many areas of fluid mechanics and learn the physical laws governing them.
Students will: (1) understand the properties, basic principles, and concepts of fluids. (2) learn about the basic equations derived from above, i.e. continuity equation, motion equation, and energy equation, and be able to use them in calculations, and (3) comprehend the aspects and properties of fluids conceptually utilizing the engineering observations of practical examples. |
