• DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
• DEPARTMENT OF AUTOMOBILE ENGINEERING
• U3MEA03 FLUID MECHANICS AND MACHINERY
• OBJECTIVES
• To familiarize with conservation laws and
  dimensional analysis to fluid flow problems
• To familiarize flow through closed conduits and
  hydraulic machines

UNIT I-Basic Concepts and Properties

• Fluid definition, distinction between solid and
  fluid - Units and dimensions - Properties of
  fluids - density, specific weight, specific
  volume, specific gravity, temperature, viscosity,
  compressibility, vapour pressure, capillary and
  surface tension - Fluid statics concept of fluid
  static pressure, absolute and gauge pressures -
  pressure measurements by manometers and pressure
  gauges.

Fluid Mechanics

• Fluid mechanics is that branch of science which
  deals with the behaviour of fluids (liquids or
  gases) at rest as well as in motion. Thus this
  branch of science deals with the static,
  kinematics and dynamic aspects of fluids. The
  study of fluids at rest is called fluid statics.
  The study of fluids in motion, where pressure
  forces are not considered, is called fluid
  kinematics and if the pressure forces are also
  considered for the fluids in motion, that branch
  of science is called fluid dynamics.

4
Field of Fluid Mechanics can be divided into 3
branches

• Fluid Statics mechanics of fluids at rest
• Kinematics deals with velocities and streamlines
  w/o considering forces or energy
• Fluid Dynamics deals with the relations between
  velocities and accelerations and forces exerted
  by or upon fluids in motion

5
APPLICATIONS

• Mechanics of fluids is extremely important in
  many areas of engineering and science. Examples
  are
• Biomechanics
• Blood flow through arteries
• Meteorology and Ocean Engineering
• Movements of air currents and water currents
• Chemical Engineering
• Design of chemical processing equipment

6

• Mechanical Engineering
• Design of pumps, turbines, air-conditioning
  equipment, pollution-control equipment, etc.
• Civil Engineering
• Transport of river sediments
• Pollution of air and water
• Design of piping systems
• Flood control systems

7
Dimensions and Units

• Before going into details of fluid mechanics, we
  stress importance of units
• In U.S, two primary sets of units are used
• 1. SI (Systeme International) units
• 2. English units
