Rationale:

Subject of Fluid Mechanics is a basic engineering subject and helps in solving fluid flow problems in the field of Civil Engineering. The subject deals with basic concepts and principles in hydrostatics, hydro kinematics and hydrodynamics and their application in solving fluid -mechanics problems.

Learning Outcomes:

After undergoing the subject, the students will be able to:

  • interpret the different terms related to fluids.
  • calculate the pressure exerted by fluids on the walls of containers.
  • Calculate discharge through pipes, irrigation channels, water supply pipe lines.
  • use different flow measurement devices like venturimeter, mouthpiece, notches, weir, orificemeter
  • calculate size of the pipe for carrying a particular discharge.
  • prepare the details like dimensions, slope of the irrigation, canals and water courses
  • differentiate between different type of water pumps used in the field.
  • measure the loss of head in pipes and channels

Instructional Strategy:

Fluid Mechanics being a fundamental subject, teachers are expected to lay considerable stress on understanding the basic concepts, principles and their applications. For this purpose, teachers are expected to give simple problems in the class room and provide tutorial exercises so as to develop necessary knowledge for comprehending the basic concepts and principles. As far as possible, the teaching of the subject be supplemented by demonstrations and practical work in the laboratory. Visit to hydraulic research stations must be carried out.

Means of Assessment:

  1. Assignments and quiz/class tests
  2. Mid-term and end-term written tests
  3. Presentation
  4. Viva-Voce
