DEPARTMENT:Mechanical Engineering
COURSE CODE-COURSE NAME: ME-103-Fluid Mechanics I CR:3-0
COURSE DESCRIPTION:This course introduces students in mechanical engineering to the basic principles
underlying the behavior of liquids and gases at rest and in motion; it also enables them to analyze simple
fluid-flow systems.
This course is an introductory fluid mechanics course and is intended to provide a very strong foundation in
the fundamentals to prepare students for more specialized fluids-related courses in future.
These fundamentals include a strong emphasis on the integral form of the conservation laws (mass,
momentum, and energy), use of Bernoulli’s equation, similitude, and hydrostatics.
TEXT AND MATERIALS:
Textbooks:
1. Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics 6th edition by Munson - Young
Reference Material:
1. Fluid Mechanics by Y. Cengel, C. M. Cimbala
