TOTAL: 45 PERIODS
COURSE OUTCOMES:
CO1:Understand the fundamental properties of fluids, stress-strain relationship in fluids, and its characteristics under static conditions and establish force balance in static systems.
CO2: Apply Bernouli principle, Navier - Stokes equation and compute pressure variation in static fluid.
CO3: Use of dimensional analysis to derive relationships among process or system variables. Further they would develop dimensionless roups that help in scale-up studies.
CO4: Understand the different types of flow conditions in fixed bed and fluidized beds.
CO5: Describe function of flow metering devices, apply Bernoulli equation to determine the performance of flow-metering devices and also analyze the performance aspects of fluid machinery such as pumps.
CO6:Understand the impact of technology change and also develop responsibilities to the professional engineering practices.
