CHE 06241 - Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics

Credits: 2

The subject of this course is in the area of general fluid flow with an emphasis on fluid flow in pipe systems. Topics covered in the area of general fluid flow include hydrostatics, mechanical energy balances, macroscopic momentum balances, and dimensionless groups. Topics covered in the area of pipe flow include incompressible flow, turbulence, viscous flows with an emphasis on quantifying frictional losses. The course includes appropriate laboratory experiments and computer applications.
