Comprehend physical aspects of fluid mechanics and mechanism of fluidic devices.
Define and determine fluid forces acting on objects and surfaces in static fluids.
Define flow problems with mathematical models that describe the flow such as the Bernoulli equation, stream functions, potential flow, and 2D steady Navier-Stokes equations in simple geometries.
Model and analyze flow problems using conservation equations and control volumes.
Relate fundamental figures of merits such as friction coefficient for pipes and ducts drag and lift coefficients for external flows over cylinders, spheres and other objects in laminar and turbulent regimes in solution to complex flow problems.
Apply the basic applied-mathematical tools that support fluid dynamics
Identify reasonable assumptions and provide simple solutions to complex engineering problems involving fluid motion.
Use dimensional homogeneity as a tool for remembering formulas and as a verification tool in their derivations and solutions
