About the course

Fluid Mechanics deals with the Study of Nature of Fluids, i.e Liquids and Gases. The subject starts with describing the Basics of Fluids including its Properties. Following this, Fluid Statics, Kinematics and Dynamics are discussed. The subject then goes into detail by describing the two main types of Fluid Flow – Laminar and Turbulent. Towards the end, the subject describes about the Flow of Fluid occurring through a Pipe, Pipe Arrangements and Losses occurring when Fluid Flows through it.describes about the Flow of Fluid occurring through a Pipe, Pipe Arrangements and Losses occurring when Fluid Flows through it.
