Course Outcomes:
- Compute the parameters associated with fluid flow and hydrostatic pressure
- Explain the flow through pipes and open channels and describe the layout of hydroelectric power station 1
- Compute water demand of crops and classify irrigation projects 1
- Outline major and minor irrigation structures
Module 1:
Fluid, fluid mechanics, hydraulics, hydrostatics and hydrodynamics – ideal and real fluid, application of hydraulics. Physical properties of fluid – density-specific volume, specific gravity, surface tension, capillarity, viscosity. Various types of pressure – Atmospheric Pressure, Gauge Pressure, Absolute Pressure, Vacuum Pressure. Concept of Pressure head and its unit, Pascal’s law of fluid pressure. Pressure measuring devices – piezometer tubes, manometers – U-tube – simple, differential and inverted tubes only – Mechanical Gauges – Bourdon’s tube pressure gauge (Brief description with sketch). Pressure on a plane surface immersed in liquid. Total pressure and center of pressure on horizontal, vertical and inclined surfaces immersed in liquids. Types of flow – Gravity and pressure flow, Laminar, Turbulent, Uniform, Non uniform, Steady, Unsteady flow (Definitions only). Reynolds number. Discharge and its unit, continuity equation of flow. Energy of flowing liquid: potential, kinetic and pressure energy. Bernoulli’s theorem: statement, assumptions, equation.

Module 3:
Irrigation and its classification. Crop Water requirement: Cropping seasons, Cropping Calendar (Kerala), Crop period, base period, Duty, Delta, Command area, intensity of irrigation, factors affecting duty, Simple problems on duty.
Classification of irrigation projects-Major, Medium and Minor schemes (Definition only)
Canals – Classification according to alignment and position in the canal network, Cross section of canal in embankment and cutting, partial embankment and cutting, balancing depth. Design of most economical canal section.
Canal lining – Purpose, material used and its properties, advantages.
Module 4:
Irrigation structures – classification of head works – storage and diversion head works -their suitability under different conditions. Storage Headworks: Dams and its classification: Earthen dams and Gravity dams (masonry and concrete). Earthen Dams and spillway – Components with function, typical cross section. Gravity Dams – typical cross section, drainage gallery. Spillways-Definition, function, location, Energy dissipaters. Diversion head works – Layout, components and their function. Weirs – components, parts, types Barrages – components and their functions. Difference between weir and Barrage. Canal regulators – Head regulator, Cross regulator, Escape, Falls and Outlets (Brief description only) Cross Drainage works – Aqueduct, siphon aqueduct, super passage, level crossing (Brief description only)
