* Applied Fluid Mechanics

This course builds upon the material introduced in Fluid Mechanics I and focuses on technical applications of fluid flow. Discussed topics include the pressure drop in pipe and channel flow networks, transient flow phenomena, external flows, performance characteristics of different pumps and turbines, systems of flow networks and flow machines, and an overview of modern flow measurement techniques. Lectures are complemented by laboratory experiments on topics such as pipe/channel networks, flow transients, and flow machines.
