EGM 331 - Fluid Mechanics

Institution:

Thomas Edison State University

Subject:

Engineering Mechanics

Description:

This course covers fundamental fluid statics, including manometer, forces on submerged surfaces, and Archimedes' principle. Details of the course include one-dimensional incompressible flow; conservation laws and application to flowing systems, cavitation, impulse-momentum problems, vanes; and pipe flows, laminar analyses, turbulent flows with emphasis on calculation of fluid properties. Other topics include one-dimensional compressible flow; conservation laws; specialization to isentropic situation; and nature of speed of sound. Applications including effects of area change, converging and diverging nozzles, choking phenomena's, and normal shock waves.
