- Course Outcome: Discuss different liquid properties related to pressure, forces, and flow.
- Module 1: Introduction to Hydraulics & Principles of Hydrostatics
- Lesson Learning Outcomes: Characterize liquids by properties, compare liquids at rest and in motion regarding pressure.
- Lessons Covered: Fluid Mechanics; Branches of Fluid Mechanics (Hydrostatics, Fluid Kinematics, Hydrodynamics/Fluid Dynamics)
- Fluid Mechanics: Studies fluid behavior, either at rest or in motion.
- Hydrostatics: Examines forces on fluids at rest.
- Fluid Kinematics: Deals with fluids in motion.
- Hydrodynamics/Fluid Dynamics: Deals with liquid or low-velocity gas flows.
- Topics: Fluid properties, principles of hydrostatics, intensity of pressure, Pascal's Law, Types of Fluids (Ideal fluids, Real fluids), Density, Specific weight, Specific weight of air/gasses, Pressure, Kinematic Viscosity, Mass Density, Specific Volume, Specific gravity
- Week/Inclusive Dates: January 13 – 24, 2025
- Modality: Face-to-face meetings
- Module 2: Archimedes' Principle
- Lessons covered: Archimedes' Principle (buoyant force = weight of the displaced fluid)
- Problem Solving: Various problems related to buoyancy (mass, weight, volume, specific gravity, etc.) are covered in the study notes.
Fluid Properties
- Mass Density: Mass of fluid per unit volume (kg/m³).
- Specific Weight (Unit Weight): Weight of fluid per unit volume (N/m³ or lb/ft³).
- Specific Weight of Air/Gases: Similar calculation but using gas-specific properties (different equations involved)
- Pressure: Force acting against a unit area in the fluid.
- Specific Volume: Volume occupied by 1 unit mass of fluid (m³/kg).
- Specific Gravity: Ratio of a substance's density/specific weight to a standard substance (water).
Fluid Types
- Ideal Fluids: Have no viscosity, uniform velocity, and no internal friction; theoretically easier to model but don't perfectly represent real-world fluids.
- Real Fluids: Exhibit viscosity, non-uniform velocity, experience friction and turbulence; more realistic representation of liquids in the real world.
Pressure and Related Concepts
- Gage Pressure: A relative pressure taken in comparison to atmospheric pressure.
- Absolute Pressure: Pressure measured above absolute zero.
- Atmospheric Pressure: Pressure at sea level under normal conditions (standard atmospheric pressure).
- Pascal’s Law: Pressure at a particular point in a fluid will be the same in all directions in a static fluid.
- Pressure Variation with Depth: Pressure increases with depth in a fluid (a linear relationship)
- Pressure Head: Height of a fluid column required to create a specific pressure; used for pressure measurement
- Barometer: Device for measuring atmospheric pressure.
- Manometer: Tube used to measure pressure differences or gage pressures (open and differential types)
Gas Laws
- Ideal Gas Law: pV = mRT
- Boyle's Law: Constant Temperature, pressure and volume inversely proportional
- Charle's Law: Constant Pressure, volume is directly proportional to temperature
- Gay-Lussac's Law: Constant Volume, pressure is directly proportional to temperature
- Combined Gas Law: A combination of Boyle’s, Charle’s and Gay-Lussac’s law covering multiple changes in Pressure, Temperature and Volume
