This unit presents the fundamental concepts of fluid behaviour both under static and dynamic conditions. This unit is designed to enable the student to analyse and design any practical problem in which fluid is the working medium. The contents of this unit includes statics and dynamics of fluid flow, dimensional analysis, internal viscous flow, eg laminar and turbulent flows in pipes and ducts. Also, viscous flow around bodies, boundary layer and compressible flow. The theoretical knowledge is reinforced by practical work, videos and a project.
