Course Objectives The main aim of this course is to obtain fundamentals of fluid mechanics, hydraulic machines, thermodynamics and heat transfer. Hydraulic fluids will be discussed, and selection techniques of the hydraulic fluids will be observed.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Explain the mechanisms for heat and momentum transfer.
  • Develop the velocity and temperature distributions for different geometries as a function of time and/or position.
  • Employ the first and second law of thermodynamics
  • Identify boundary conditions for heat and momentum transfer of a given system.
  • Apply the principle of conservation of mass and energy in solving engineering problems.
Course Description Fluid Statistics, The Momentum and Mechanical Energy Equations, Internal and External Flow, Similitude, Dimensional Analysis and Modelling, Hydraulic Machines, Hydraulic Fluids, The First Law of Thermodynamics, The Second Law of Thermodynamics, Heat Transfer by Conduction, Heat Transfer by Convection
