MCE 244 Course Outline

The document outlines a 16-week calendar for a Mechanics of Fluid II course. It details the topics to be covered each week, including fluid properties, flow patterns and types, the Bernoulli equation, dimensional analysis, and fluid flow measurement techniques. Students will learn about fluid motion, equations for inviscid flow, orifice and venturi meters, and apply concepts like the energy, momentum and continuity equations. Assignments, quizzes, and mid/end of semester exams are scheduled throughout the course.
