MET 336Engineering Fluid Mechanics
This course introduces mechanical engineering technology students to the development of basic fluid mechanics relationships. Course topics include such as fluid properties, pressure measurement, hydrostatic forces on plane and curved surfaces, buoyancy and stability, conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and conservation of energy. Specific , Bernoulli's equation, internal and external flow, friction In pipes and fittings, Reynold's number, laminar and turbulent flow, boundary layer theory, Minor losses, Major losses, and Drag forces are discussed. Students use differential and integral calculus and draw free body diagrams to solve applied fluid flow problems.
