21) Applied Fluid Mechanics
– Number of credits: 2 (theory) + 1 (practice)
– Prerequisites/Previous subjects: no
– Description of course content: This course introduces students to basic physical concepts and mathematical representations in fluid mechanics. This will become an important foundation for understanding and developing tools for chemical engineers to analyze chemical, physical, and biological processes. Specifically, the following lessons will be covered (this is not an exhaustive list):
– Course Description: This course introduces the students to fundamental physical concepts and mathematical descriptions in fluid mechanics. These will prove vital for the comprehension and development of tools utilized by chemical engineers to analyze chemical, physical, or biological processes. In particular, the following topics will be discussed (not an extensive list by any mean).
– Dimensional analysis and dynamic similarity
– Fluid statics
– Stresses in fluid; elementary constitutive relations
– Conservation principles: mass, momentum, and energy
– Navier–Stokes equations, and few simple exact solutions
– Viscous fluid: boundary layer and turbulence
