ES 2330 - Fluid Dynamics/Mechanics

(3)

Students study incompressible flow of ideal and real fluids at rest and in motion. Fluids may be liquids, vapors, gases, or combinations of these. The effects of static forces and compressibility are given special attention. Kinematics, dynamics, flow, flow resistance, and physical effects of flow are considered in detail for moving fluids. Potential and stream functions and similitude and dimensional analysis are also studied. Prerequisites: ES 2110 and previous or concurrent enrollment in ES 2310. (3 hrs lec)
