OBJECTIVES
To understand the basic properties of the fluid, fluid kinematics, fluid dynamics and to
analyse and appreciate the complexities involved in solving the fluid flow problems.
UNIT I FLUID PROPERTIES AND FLUID STATICS 9
Fluid – definition, distinction between solid and fluid - Units and dimensions - Properties
of fluids - density, specific weight, specific volume, specific gravity, temperature,
viscosity, compressibility, vapour pressure, capillarity and surface tension - Fluid statics:
concept of fluid static pressure, absolute and gauge pressures - pressure measurements
by manometers and pressure gauges.
UNIT II FLIUD KINEMATICS 9
Fluid Kinematics - Flow visualization - lines of flow - types of flow - velocity field and
acceleration - continuity equation (one and three dimensional differential forms)-
Equation of streamline - stream function - velocity potential function - circulation - flow
net.
26
UNIT III FLUID DYNAMICS 9
Fluid dynamics - equations of motion - Euler's equation along a streamline - Bernoulli's
equation – applications - Venturi meter, Orifice meter, Pitot tube – flow through weirs
and notches.
UNIT IV FLOW THROUGH PIPES 9
Viscous flow - Navier-Stoke's equation (Statement only) - Shear stress, pressure
gradient relationship - laminar flow between parallel plates - Laminar flow through
circular tubes (Hagen poiseulle's) - Hydraulic and energy gradient - flow through pipes -
Darcy -weisbach's equation - pipe roughness -friction factor- Moody's diagram.
UNIT V BOUNDARY LAYER 9
Boundary layer – definition- boundary layer on a flat plate – Thickness and classification
– displacement , energy and momentum thickness – Boundary layer separation and
control – drag in flat plate, cylinders and spheres – drag and lift coefficients.
