Course details

Fluid Dynamics and Turbomachines is an advanced engineering course that provides an in-depth understanding of the behavior of fluids in motion and the principles governing energy transfer between fluids and rotating machinery. The course begins with fundamental concepts of fluid properties, fluid statics, and fluid kinematics, followed by a detailed study of fluid dynamics, including conservation of mass, momentum, and energy. Emphasis is placed on analyzing fluid flow through pipes, ducts, nozzles, and channels, as well as understanding losses due to friction, turbulence, and flow separation.

The turbomachinery component of the course focuses on the working principles, performance characteristics, and design aspects of machines that convert energy between fluids and mechanical systems. This includes a comprehensive study of turbines, pumps, compressors, and fans, covering velocity triangles, stage efficiency, specific speed, and characteristic curves. Practical considerations such as cavitation, flow instabilities, and operational limitations are also addressed. By integrating theoretical analysis with real-world applications in power plants, aerospace propulsion, HVAC systems, and process industries, the course equips learners with the skills required to analyze, select, and optimize fluid flow systems and turbomachines for efficient and reliable engineering performance.
