Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics - Definition of fluid and its properties. The continuous fluid. Forces acting on a continuous fluid. The state of tension in a fluid at rest. The state of tension in a fluid in motion. Material derivative and local derivative, transport theorem. The principle of conservation of mass and momentum in a global form. State of tension in a still fluid, cardinal equations of statics, static thrusts on flat and bumpy surfaces. State of tension in a fluid in motion, the stress tensor. Scheme of ideal fluid and Bernoulli's theorem. Still fluids: - The pressure distribution in an incompressible fluid and in a barotropic fluid. Evaluation of the thrust exerted on flat and curvy surfaces . Fluids in motion: the current scheme - Fluid currents: definition and characteristic quantities. The principle of conservation of mass and momentum for a current.The currents under pressure - The calculation of the resistances distributed in the currents in pressure in steady and uniform motion. Concentrated energy dissipation in pressure currents. Design and verification of simple pumping systems.The free surface currents - the calculation of the resistances distributed in the currents in stationary and uniform motion, the uniform motion depth. Possible free surface current in stationary state, critical depth. Stationary and non-uniform currents, the profile equation.
