Objectifs Généraux
By the end of this course, students will be able:
1. To recognize, distinguish and apply principles and laws of thermo-fluid systems
2. To solve static problems and dynamic problems related to incompressible fluid flows.
3. To analyze common thermo-fluid systems and contribute to new designs.
4. To apply the principles and fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics in the practical engineering domain
5. To take into account the energy transition context and learn how to optimize fluid system efficiency
6. To carry out different experiments, and explain the results in a proper and scientific written manner (Reports).
Contenu
This course aims to master the basic laws and principles of fluid mechanics and to be able to solve simplified examples of fluid mechanics due to theoretical and practical work preparing students to apply the acquired knowledge and skills in professional and advanced fluid mechanics courses.
18 hours of lectures, 18 hours of tutorials:
• Review of fundamental Concepts and fluid properties
• Fluid Statics: Hydrostatics, the branch studying fluids at rest
• Fluid Kinematics & fluid motion analysis approaches (focus on Reynolds Transport Theorem)
• Conservation laws part I: fundamental to our understanding of the physical and thermos-fluid systems (mass, momentum and energy conservation)
• Conservation laws part II: efficiency concept & Bernoulli equation and extended Bernoulli equation as an application
• Dimensional analysis: non-dimensional equations, from prototypes to models due to similitude principle and method of the repeating variables
• Internal flows: Viscous flows in piping networks and pressure losses, major and minor losses
• External flows: Flows over bodies, Drag and Lift forces
• Fluid flow governing equations: Navier Stokes equations
8 hours of labs:
• Venturi tube study: Bernoulli equation application
• Hydraulic jet study: application of Momentum conservation
• Flowmeters: flow measurement techniques
• Pressure losses in a piping system
• Drug force study: Assessment of the drag coefficient of different obstacles
• Pump study: operating condition identification
