(23A01303) FLUID MECHANICS
Course Objectives:
• To explain basics of statics, kinematics and dynamics of fluids and various measuring
techniques of hydrostatic forces on objects.
• To impart ability to solve engineering problems in fluid mechanics
• To enable the students measure quantities of fluid flowing in pipes, tanks and
channels
• To teach integral forms of fundamental laws of fluid mechanics to predict relevant
pressures, velocities and forces.
• To strengthen the students with fundamentals useful in application-intensive courses
dealing with hydraulics, hydraulic machinery and hydrology in future courses.
