Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics Detailed Syllabus for B.Tech second year second sem is covered here. This gives the details about credits, number of hours and other details along with reference books for the course.
The detailed syllabus for Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics B.Tech 2016-2017 (R16) second year second sem is as follows.
B.Tech. II Year II Sem. L/T/P/C
Course Code: PE401ES 4/1/0/4
Prerequisites:Engineering Mathematics, Engineering Physics
Course Objective:
To introduce the concepts, principles, laws, observations and models of fluids at rest and in motion and also to provide the basis for understanding the fluid behavior, engineering design and control of fluid systems. Course Outcomes: The student would be able to get knowledge related to compressible & incompressible fluids and also transportation of fluids.
UNIT-I Unit operations and unit processes, unit systems, basic concepts, nature of fluids, hydrostatic equilibrium, applications of fluid statics. Fluid flow phenomena-Laminar flow, Shear rate, Shear stress, Rheological properties of fluids, Turbulence, Boundary layers, Basic equation of fluid flow –Mass balance in a flowing fluid; continuity equation, differential momentum balance; equations of motion, Macroscopic momentum balances, Bernoulli equation, pump work in Bernoulli equation.
UNIT-II Incompressible Flow in pipes and channels- shear stress and skin friction in pipes, laminar flow in pipes and channels, turbulent flow in pipes and channels, friction from changes in velocity or direction, Dimensional analysis including Buckingham π Theorem and Rayleigh’s method.
UNIT-III Flow of compressible fluids- Definitions and basic equations, Processes of compressible flow, Isentropic flow through nozzles, adiabatic frictional flow, and isothermal frictional flow.
