Course Aims

Fluid mechanics is applied in a wide spectrum of practical applications ranging from micro-fluidic systems to large aerospace crafts. It is challenging since fluid mechanics requires more proper analysis of a problem than direct application of equations. Students must first assess the problem, make and justify appropriate assumptions and simplifications, identify suitable concepts and apply them to formulate the proper solutions. The course aims to lay down the basic principles and governing equations of fluid mechanics, and demonstrate their applications in engineering practice with real-word engineering examples.
