Fluid Mechanics I (MEng 2306)

This document outlines a fluid mechanics course offered at Debre Markos University Technology College. The 3 credit, second year course aims to provide students with fundamental concepts and principles of fluid statics and dynamics. Topics covered include fluid properties, hydrostatics, basic equations of fluid flow, viscous and turbulent flow, and gas dynamics. Evaluation is based on assignments, a midterm exam, and a final exam. The minimum attendance requirement is 75% of lectures and 100% of practical sessions.
