Introduction, physical properties of fluids; Fluid statics (liquids and gases); Dimensional analysis and experimentation; Flow of particulates; Pressure drops in channels and pipes; Microscopic balance equations; Navier-Stokes equations; Governing equations and applications to one-dimensional systems; Macroscopic balance equations; Design of pipelines and piping networks.
Tests Administration:
- 1 midterm test, which covers the first part of the course;
- 1 final test, which covers the second part of the course;
- 1 replacement test (nachtest), which covers the entire program of the course and is in october.
Test duration: 1h30min.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To be admitted to the final test, attendance to a minimum of 6 UE is mandatory.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To be admitted to the replacement test:
- attendance to a minimum of 9 UE lectures is mandatory;
- completion of minimum 50% of the exercises proposed in the homerworks during the UE is mandatory (completed exercises must be confirmed in TUWel). Important: tutors are requested to randomly check homerworks. When an exercise, marked "complete" in TUWel, is found not made, then the exercise will be considered not made.
Structure of the test:
- Each test consists of 2 or 3 problems;
- Each problem is subdivided into several questions;
- Each question has a score so that the cumulative score of the entire test is 100;
- Each problem must be solved applying the correct equations and providing the correct numerical result when required.
Grades:
To obtain a grade for the course, either the two intermediate tests or the replacement test must be taken.
--------------------
- Case 1: Midterm and final tests
The maximum score for each test is 100. The maximum cumulative score is 200. Scores and corresponding grades will be assigned according to the following table:
SCORE GRADE
<100 -> (fail) 5
100-130 -> (pass) 4
131-147 -> (pass) 3
148-170 -> (pass) 2
>170 -> (pass) 1
NOTE:
Access to the final test requires a minimum score of 26 in the midterm test.
A score less than 26 in the final test will correspond to fail in the midterm and final test.
--------------------
- Case 2: Replacement test (October)
The maximum score for the test is 100. Scores and corresponding grades will be assigned according to the following table:
SCORE GRADE
<50 -> (fail) 5
50-65 -> (pass) 4
66-73 -> (pass) 3
74-85 -> (pass) 2
>85 -> (pass) 1
----------------------------
Office hours
Students have to write an intermediate and a final test (or, alternatively, a replacement test in october) to assess whether they have achieved the expected knowledge and preparation.
Vector analysis, differential and integral multivariable calculus, line and surface integrals, ordinary differential equations
