MEEG 3374 - Fluid Mechanics I

Three credit hours.

The aim of this course is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the basic theories and principles of fluid mechanics, with emphasis on the three commonly used analysis methods: finite control volume (also known as “integral”) analysis, differential analysis, and dimensional analysis. The topics covered throughout the semester include fluid statics, inviscid, and viscous flow motions (dynamics). The governing equations that dictate fluid motions are discussed: continuity, linear momentum, and energy equations. Applications of mathematics to engineering problems.

Prerequisites: MEEG 3378 or CNMG 3378 (or equivalent).
