Fluid Dynamics

Course Description

In this course, more in depth than in EN-4111, students study the fundamentals of fluid dynamics. Topics include hydrostatics (pressure distribution, forces on submerged surfaces, Archimedes' principle), Newton's law of viscosity, use of differential and finite control volume analysis with the basic laws (conservation of mass, momentum, and energy), differential formulation of basic laws (Navier-Stokes), piping systems, vorticity, boundary layers, drag coefficient, and turbulence.
