Understanding the basic concepts of Fluid Mechanics, application of these concepts to engineering problems
1. Definition of fluid statics, fluid dynamics, compressible and incompressible fluid concepts.
2. Derivation of the equations governing fluid motion by modeling potential and viscous flows around bodies.
3. Investigation of continuity, momentum and energy equations of fluids from different aspects by differential and finite volume methods.
4. Simplified modeling of flow problems encountered in practice and relating analytical solutions to experimental data.
