CE6303 MECHANICS OF FLUIDS SYLLABUS
3RD SEM CIVIL
REGULATION 2013
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 gaugesforces on planes – centre of pressure – bouncy and floatation.
UNIT II FLIUD KINEMATIC S AND DYNAMICS 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. Fluid dynamics - equations of motion - Euler's equation along a streamline - Bernoulli's equation – applications - Venturi meter, Orifice meter and Pitot tube. Linear momentum equation and its application.
UNIT III FLOW THROUGH PIPES 9
Viscous flow - 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-Major and minor losses of flow in pipes - Pipes in series and in parallel.
UNIT IV 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 – drag and lift coefficients.
UNIT V DIMENSIONAL ANALYSIS AND MODEL STUDIES 9
Fundamental dimensions - dimensional homogeneity - Rayleigh‟s method and Buckingham PiTheorem - Dimensionless parameters - Similitude and model studies - Distorted Models.
TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
OUTCOMES:
The students will be able to get a basic knowledge of fluids in static, kinematic and dynamic equilibrium.
They will also gain the knowledge of the applicability of physical laws in addressing problems in hydraulics.
