Buoyancy. - Reynolds transport theorem. - Continuity equation, momentum equation and angular momentum equation for control volumes. - Energy equation and Bernoulli equation. - Euler equations for inviscid flow. - Navier-Stokes equations for viscous flow. - Boundary conditions for the basic equations of fluid mechanics. - Stream function, vorticity and rotation, viscous stresses and strain rates. - Reynolds number. Qualitative issues on turbulence. - Laminar and turbulent pipe flow. - Boundary layer concept. - Two-dimensional potential theory, velocity potential, some elementary flows, circulation. Skills: After completion of this course, the student will have skills on: - Evaluation of models for flow analysis. - Use of control volume analysis. - Computation of forces and moments from fluid on solid bodies. - Derivation and use of formulae and tables for flows. - Solution of the basic laws of fluid mechanics for simple flow problems. General competence: After completion of this course, the student will have general competence on: - The basic elements of the theoretical foundations for ideal and real fluid flows. - Formulation and solution of practical flow problems, also aided by digital tools.
