Scope of fluid mechanics and fluid properties; viscosity; basic fluid statics; the Bernoulli equation; fluid kinematics; finite control volume analysis; basic differential analysis of fluid flow; similitude, dimensional analysis, and modelling; viscous flow in pipes; flow over immersed bodies; one-dimensional isentropic compressible flow through nozzles. In addition, in-depth studies are included in some sub-area of flow mechanics.
Grading scale: TH - (U, 3, 4, 5) - (Fail, Three, Four, Five)
Assessment: Assessment of individual (written) home exercises, a final written examination, which consists of a theory part (without means of assistance) and an open-book problem-solving part, and written report and oral presentation of a project work. The course mark is determined the result from the written examination, the project report and (if any) bonus points from approved problem assignments. The graduation is determined from a special formula.
The final grade is based 60% on the exam and 40% on the project assignment.
The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
