216. Fluid Mechanics 

Introduction- 
	Concept of continuum, difference between fluid mechanics and solid mechanics,
	brief history of classical hydraulics, hydrodynamics and fluid mechanics

Properties of fluids- 
	Ideal and real fluids, Newtonian and.
	Non-Newtonian fluids, viscosity, surface tension capillarity cor~'ssibIhty, 
	Fluid statics and buoyancy.

Fluid Kinematics- 
	Streamlines, path lines, streak lines, yelocity pot~~ti~ end ~ functions, 
	lamina? and turbulent ff6ws, steady and ~ flow, rotational a~n:l irrotational 
	motion-circulation, vorticity, velocity and acceleration.

Fluid Dynamics- 
	Cans ~rati6n of mass, C~ns~~rvation of linear morneflWm- Boat ~ 
	Force exerted on fixed and ~bving vanes, 
	Moment Of'momentum e4uation- ra~ dial flow over curved vares, 
	Enler's et~u<~ation, Bernoulli's ~quatlon.

Laminar flow: 
	Flow through pipes, frictional' and ot~ losses, 
	momentum correction factor, Hydralic grade line.

Turbulent flow- 
	Fufly developed flow, through rough and smooth pipes, 
	Flow through. pipes in series and par~led.

Dimensional AnalVsis: 
	Similitude of flu. id~~ ~vs, Hydraulic modelling, Non-dimensional parameters: 
	Reynolds, Froude, Euler, Weber and Mach Numbers. Flow . mCasurernents:
	Piezometer, manometers, pressure gauges, pilot tube, onfices, 
	Notches, and weirs, orifice meter, venturimeter. 
	Forces on Immersed bodies-Drag and lift, Aerofoi~l Section. 
	Open Channeal Flow~- Classification, specific energy ~nd critical depth, 
	Flow in a v~enteri flurne, flow through a sluice  gate, 
	uniform flow in channels (Chezy's and M~nning formula), 
	Optimum shape of cross-section, Hydraulic jump.
