Course Objective:
- To introduce the students to the mechanics of fluids through a thorough understanding of the properties of the fluids, behaviour of fluids under static conditions.
- The dynamics of fluids is introduced through the control volume approach which gives an integrated understanding of the transport of mass, momentum and energy.
- To expose to the applications of the conservation laws to
- flow measurements
- flow through pipes (both laminar and turbulent) and
- forces on vanes.

Unit II
Fluid Flow Analysis
Types of fluid flow – velocity and acceleration of a fluid particle – Rotational – irrotational -circulation and vorticity – Flow pattern – stream line – equipotential line – stream tube – path linesteak line – flow net – velocity potential – stream function. Principles of conservation of massenergy – momentum – continuity equation in Cartesian co-ordinates – Eulers equation of motion.
Unit III
Flow Measurements
Bernoullis equation – applications – Venturimeter – orifice meter – nozzle meter rota meter -elbow meter pitot tube – Orifice – sharp edged orifice discharging free – submerged orifice -mouth piece – Flow through orifice under variable head – time of emptying a tank with and without inflow. Flow through pipes – laminar and turbulent flow in pipes – Reynolds experiment – Darcy -Weisbach equation for friction head loss – Chezys formula – Mannings formula – Hazen-Williams formula – Major and minor losses in pipes – hydraulic gradient line – energy gradient line. Siphon -water hammer in pipes – gradual and sudden closure of values

Unit V
Dimensional Analysis and Pumps
Dimensional analysis – concept of geometric, kinematic and dynamic similarity.Important nondimensional numbers – Reynolds, Froude, Euler, Mach and Weber. Pump terminology -suction lift, suction head, delivery head, discharge, water horse power – selection of pump capacity. Centrifugal pumps – components – working – types of pumps and impellers – Priming
Course Outcome:
- The students will be able to get a basic knowledge of fluids in static, kinematic and dynamic equilibrium.
- They will also gain the knowledge of the applicability of physical laws in addressing problems in hydraulics.
