This course focuses on fundamentals of fluid mechanics and the properties of fluids in civil engineering settings. Topics to be covered include fluid properties, fluid statics, fluid dynamics and applications of Bernoulli equation, fluid kinematics, finite control volume analysis and applications of Reynolds Transport Theorem, dimensional analysis and viscous flow in pipes. Lab sessions covers various basic experiments such as Reynold’s dye experiment, flow measurement in pipes, measuring major and minor head losses in pipe flows.
