Lab Manual

Basic knowledge about fluid mechanics is required in various areas of water resources engineering such as designing hydraulic structures and turbomachinery. The applied fluid mechanics laboratory course is designed to enhance civil engineering students’ understanding and knowledge of experimental methods and the basic principle of fluid mechanics and apply those concepts in practice. The lab manual provides students with an overview of ten different fluid mechanics laboratory experiments and their practical applications. The objective, practical applications, methods, theory, and the equipment required to perform each experiment are presented. The experimental procedure, data collection, and presenting the results are explained in detail.
