Fluid Mechanics and Termomechanics

Summary

In this course students learn the basic principles of two disciplines: fluid mechanics and thermodynamics.
Fluid mechanics deals with the balance of forces in liquids at rest and in motion.
Basic laws of mechanics are applied, i.e. the conditions of force balance and momentum balance, conservation of mass and energy.
Thermomechanics is a basic science, which includes thermodynamics of gases and heat transfer. It has a number of practical applications in various disciplines and in everyday life.
