Aim of the course

The aim of the subject is to acquire basic knowledge of fluid mechanics and to understand the basic concepts, phenomena and laws governing the flow of fluids, as well as to acquire the ability to apply this knowledge in theory and practice.

Prerequisites

Scope

Lectures:

Aims and tasks of fluid mechanics. Some notions of fluid mechanics. Principles of conservations: mass (continuity equqtion), momentum and moment of momentum. Forces acting of fluid. Euler equation. Some applications of the Bernoulli equation. Newtonian fluids. Navier-Stokes equation and some solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation. Static of fluids. Reaction of liquid on a plane wall and curved walls. Condition of floating bodies. Flow of liquid in tubes and another channel. Flow filtration in the groud.

Exercises:

Solving equilibrium equations related to fluid statics. Fluid pressures on flat, curved surfaces and the buoyancy force. Some solutions to the Navier-Stokes equation and Bernoulli equations for ideal and viscous flows. Energy losses of flowing fluid in pipelines.

Laboratory:

Measurements of basic hydraulic quantities: measurements of pressure and fluid viscosity. The flow of viscous fluid in a pipeline with a small diameter. Distribution of air flow velocity in the cross-section of the ventilation pipeline. Local flow losses in pipelines (orifice and curved pipeline). Measurements of operating parameters of hydraulic devices: characteristics of a centrifugal pump and fan. Study of the stream and free streams of air.

Assignment conditions

Exercises: the basis for passing the exercises is a positive grade in a written test on the knowledge of fluid mechanics issues and attendance at classes.

Laboratory: the basis for passing laboratory classes is: attendance at all classes, preparation for each class, performance of laboratory tests, preparation of reports on the tests carried out and their positive assessment by the teacher, as well as - a positive grade from the final final test. Grading scale: points obtained/grade 0÷50%/ unsatisfactory, 51÷60%/satisfactory, 61÷70%/satisfactory plus, 71÷80%/good, 81÷90%/ good plus, 91÷100%/very Good

Lecture: Exam: the condition for taking the exam is obtaining a positive grade in the exercises and laboratory. The basis for passing the exam are positive results of a knowledge check carried out in a form agreed with the teacher at the beginning of the lectures (colloquium, test, oral answer). Grading scale: points obtained/grade: 0 – 50%/ unsatisfactory; 51 – 60%/ satisfactory; 61-70%/sufficient plus; 71 – 80%/ good: 81 – 90%/ good plus; 91 -100%/ very good.

The basis for determining the final grade is the weighted average obtained by adding: 0.6 lecture grade, 0.2 laboratory grade and 0.2 laboratory grade. The weighted average is rounded to two decimal places. The final grade is determined on the basis of a weighted average according to the principle: below 3.24 - satisfactory, from 3.25 to 3.74 - satisfactory plus, from 3.75 to 4.24 - good, from 4.25 to 4.74 – good plus, from 4.75 – very good.
