OVERVIEW

Basic course in fluid mechanics

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course provide the introductory knowledge to address basic problems in fluid mechanics.  The concepts of fluid and pressure are introduced, the mechanical energy equation is formally derived, thermodynamics aspects are considered, to address the behavior of fluids in static and dynamic conditions, as well as the interactions between fluids and rigid bodies.

 

TEACHING METHODS

The course is organized in lectures and exercises, provided within the course. All concepts introduced will be explained also through exercises and examples, to guarantee maximum understanding of the subject matter.

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

Introduction; the continuum assumption and the fluid; fluid static, fluid kinematics and strain analysis; integral equations of motion; flow in ducts; Bernouilli and energy equations; differential equations of motion; inviscid irrotational flows; elementary viscous flows; introduction to the concepts of lift and drag.
