Synopsis of Course Contents The goal of this course is to impart knowledge, understanding and an ap-
preciation of the field of fluid mechanics. This course includes the study of
the basic properties of fluids which encompasses both gases and liquids,
the basic concepts of system, control volume and flow
field, the basic principles of conservation of mass, energy and momentum,
the fundamental equations that govern the behavior of fluids, the applica-
tion of the principles and equations to the understanding of the operations
of various types of flow measuring equipment and the study and analysis of
the forces that act on bodies moving through a fluid and vice versa.
