• To help understanding the nature of fluid statics, in particular dealing with problems related to hydrostatic forces.
• To be able to analyze the problems related to elementary fluid dynamics especially for incompressible flows using Bernoulli equation in particular.
• To learn the basic models for Inviscid and viscous fluid flow using control volume and differential analysis approaches.
• To develop the understanding by applying mathematical models to simple realizable configurations along with practical considerations.
• To apprehend the applications/solutions of models developed in the advanced course in industrial applications using analytical as well as numerical methods.[/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=”COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)” use_theme_fonts=”yes”][vc_column_text]CLO-1: Apply the basic models for inviscid and viscous fluid flow using control volume and differential analysis approaches. (C3)
