Hydraulics 202(A)

The student will be able to define and manipulate the theoretical concepts which underlie hydrostatics and fluid dynamics

1.  Define, quantify, manipulate and formulate the concepts which underlie basic fluid properties, pressure, hydrostatic and buoyancy. Apply principles to solving problems involving same.

2. Define, quantify and formulate the concepts of fluid flow using the principles defined in the basic flow equations. Apply principles to solving problems involving same.

3. Introduce concepts of flow measurement and carry out analysis of basic engineering problems.

4. Define, quantify and formulate the concepts of pipe flow. Apply principles to solving problems involving same.

5. Uses standard hydraulic engineering equipment to perform experiments in teams, observe and record data and experimental evidence. Compile and report in a clear concise manner the findings and results of laboratory experiment.
