Course Objectives

The objectives of this course are to: 1. To demonstrate basic concepts in fluid mechanics by

performing experiments related to continuity and conservation of momentum.

2. To demonstrate energy loses in pipe flow. 3. To demonstrate laminar, transition and turbulent flow.

4. To familiarize students with the use of various testing equipment for mechanical properties characterization of engineering materials

5. To develop skills for conducting mechanical tests and collection of experimental data.

6. To develop skills for analysis and interpretation of test data.

7. To study mechanical behavior of various engineering materials under different loading conditions.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of this course, students should be able to: 1. Conduct experiments to determine volumetric flow rates,

and study application of Bernoulli’s equation. 2. Conduct experiments to study friction loses and flow

visualization. 3. Observe laminar, transition and turbulent flows and

determine Reynolds number boundaries. 4. Determine pump characteristics. 5. Explain the use a material testing machine to conduct a

standard tensile test, and compression test. Design and conduct an experiment; analyze and interpret the data to obtain material properties.

6. Describe the use a material testing machine to conduct a standard three point bending, and deflection of a cantilever test. Design and conduct an experiment; analyze and interpret the data to obtain structural and material properties.
