Course Purpose and Content

Course Objectives: To teach the fundamentals of fluid mechanics to engineering students and to provide them with comprehensive knowledge on the applications in this field that they will encounter in their professional life.
Course Content: In this course, students will be given information on fluid mechanics applications that they may encounter frequently in their future professional life. Hydrostatic pressure applications, flows with negligible friction, conservation equations, Bernoulli and energy equations, flows with friction and measurement methods in fluid mechanics will be explained. Students who successfully complete this course will have a solid foundation in fluid mechanics and will have the necessary infrastructure to work on this subject in their professional life.
