Learning outcomes
|
The subject introduces students into the basics of hydrostatic, flow of incompressible liquids and heat transfer. Basic equations of flow, simplified models and their applications in different case of flowing are shown. Experimental evidences of flowing of viscid liquids in main technical applications are explained, as well as basics of physical modeling of turbulent.
Students will acquire fundamentals of experimental fluid mechanics and heat transfer. They will be familiarized with experimental approach to various problems of technical applications.
