An introduction to the fundamental behaviour of fluids and basic analysis techniques required by the engineers.
On successful completion of the unit the student will: • have gained a qualitative feel for the way fluids behave, particularly gases; • possess a knowledge of the continuity and momentum equations of fluid flow, and should be able to apply them to a variety of situations of interest to engineers; • have an understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of mathematical models, and, the role of assumptions in modelling
