Course Objective

1) Introduce students to the theory and applications of fluid mechanics, also known as momentum transport.

2) Explain principal means of analyzing and understanding fluid motion comes from mass, momentum and energy balances applied to fluids.

3) Explain the basic mechanisms of heat transfer, namely, conduction, convection and radiation.

4) Make necessary calculations related to momentum and heat transfer.
