Theory examination:

1. The question paper will comprise of six questions; each carrying 20 marks.
2. The first question will be compulsory and will have short questions having weightage of 4-5marks covering the entire syllabus.
3. The remaining five questions will be based on all the modules of the entire syllabus and may be. For this, the modules shall be divided proportionately and further, the weightage of the marks shall be judiciously awarded in proportion to the importance of the sub-module and contents thereof.
4. Remaining questions will be mixed in nature (e.g. Suppose Q.2 has part
   1. from module II then part
   2. will be from any module other than module II).
5. The students will have to attempt any three questions out of remaining five questions.
6. Total four questions need to be attempted.

List of Experiments (Any six):

1. Determination of metacentric height.
2. Verification of Bernoullis theorem.
3. Determination of coefficient of discharge through Venturimeter.
4. Determination of coefficient of discharge through Orifice meter.
5. Determination of coefficient of discharge through Nozzle meter.
6. Determination of coefficient of discharge through Notches (Rectangular and Triangular notch).
7. Determination of coefficient of discharge over weirs (Broad Crested weir and Ogee weir).
8. Determination of hydraulic coefficients of orifice.
9. Determination of coefficient of discharge through mouthpiece.

Internal Assessment:

There will be two class tests (to be referred to as an Internal Assessment) to be conducted in the semester. The first internal assessment (IA) will be conducted in the mid of the semester based on the 40% of the syllabus. It will be of 20 marks. Similarly, the second internal assessment (IA) will be conducted at the end of the semester and it will be based on next 40% of the syllabus. It will be of 20 marks. Lastly, the average of the marks scored by the students in both the Internal Assessment will be considered. Duration of both the IA examination will be of one hour duration, respectively.
