Course Description A study of Fluid Mechanics fundamentals in applications of hydrostatic forces, pumping systems, fluid power, momentum transfer, external flow, and open channel flow. Laboratory exercises demonstrate lecture topics. Course Learning Outcomes Students completing this course will develop an understanding of fundamentals and application of the following topics: 1. Determine forces on submerged surfaces in the design of weirs, dams, tanks, etc. Determine the buoyant forces acting on an object as a function of fluid and solid properties. 2. Apply the general energy equation to pumping systems to determine important operational properties: head, flow, efficiency, cavitation potential. Apply this information in the selection of appropriate system components (pump, pipe, valves, and fittings) to accomplish a task. 3. Evaluate the equipment selection and operation of a hydraulic or pneumatic system for a specific fluid power task. 4. Determine the energy transfer between a flowing fluid and solid surfaces in turbines. 5. Apply empirical equations for the determination of flow in open channels. 6. Apply external flow concepts to calculate drag coefficients for a range of geometric shapes to understand the effects of streamline separation on drag.

The use of simple scientific calculators is allowed in all laboratories and examinations. Cell phones, computers or other devices cannot be used as your calculator. 2. Ringers must be off. If you must take a call, place a call or text, please leave the classroom. 3. Laptops, tablets, etc. may be used for note taking but no internet browsing, e-mail, etc. 4. Headsets will not be used unless you need assistance in hearing. Technology Skills Needed All students are expected to be familiar with: 1. Connecting to the internet. 2. Logging in to the course website (i.e. D2L Brightspace). 3. Using internet browsers (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc.). 4. Downloading and opening PDF, Word, and Excel documents. 5. Elementary use of Excel including Cell Referencing and using Math Functions, no VBA required. Withdrawal Students who find that they cannot continue in college for the entire semester after being enrolled, because of illness or any other reason, need to complete an online form. To completely or partially withdraw from classes at KSU, a student must withdraw online at www.kennesaw.edu, under Owl Express, Student Services. The date the withdrawal is submitted online will be considered the official KSU withdrawal date which will be used in the calculation of any tuition refund or refund to Federal student aid and/or HOPE scholarship programs. It is advisable to print the final page of the withdrawal for your records. Withdrawals submitted online prior to midnight on the last day to withdraw without academic penalty will receive a “W” grade. Withdrawals after midnight will receive a “WF”. Failure to complete the online withdrawal process will produce no withdrawal from classes. Call the Registrar’s Office at 770-423-6200 during business hours if assistance is needed. Students may, by means of the same online withdrawal and with the approval of the university Dean, withdraw from individual courses while retaining other courses on their schedules. This option may be exercised up until the W date on the Academic Calendar (on Registrar’s website). Failure to withdraw by the W date will mean that the student has elected to receive the final grade(s) earned in the course(s). The only exception to those withdrawal regulations will be for those instances that involve unusual and fully documented circumstances. In these rare cases, the policies of the university regarding hardship withdrawals will be strictly followed. If any remaining coursework cannot be completed by the last class day, the instructor of this course will only consider assigning an incomplete grade to a student with an unusual and fully documented circumstance (must be verified by department chair or college dean), who is passing the course within two weeks of the last class day. If the final exam is among the assignments, the student’s grade will remain an “F” until it is taken, after which a grade change form will be submitted to the registrar if necessary, once the other agreed upon conditions are met.
