ENE 3305 - Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulics

Institution:

Central State University

Subject:

Environmental Engineering

Description:

First course that deals with statics and dynamics of incompressible fluids in general, and water in particular. Fluid properties; Principles of hydrostatics; Kinematics and dynamics of fluid flows; Flow visualization; Mass, momentum, and energy conservation; Bernoulli?s principle; Introduction to fluid flow in closed conduits and open channels; Introduction to turbo-machinery - pumps and turbines. Laboratory work includes demonstration of Bernoulli?s principle and Reynold?s laminar and turbulent flow concepts; estimating pipe friction; energy principles in open channel flow and steady flow formulas - Chezy and Manning?s formulas; Hydraulic behavior of turbo machinery. Additional two contact hours are required for laboratory experiments. Three one hour lectures/one two hour lab. Prerequisites: MTH 2503 and PHY 2211 and 2213.
