Summary
The course builds on the theoretical knowledge of fluid mechanics. Students learn more about the flow of liquids in pipes, the principles of graphic and numerical solution of simple and complex pipes. They acquire new knowledge about pipeline networks and analysis of flow in branched and circuit networks. Attention is also paid to work of a pump in the hydraulic system and its control.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit
Students gain the knowledge about selection, installation and operation of pumps and pumping systems, and obtain answers to many specific questions regarding transportation and pumping liquids.
Course Contents
The course builds on the knowledge of fluid mechanics. Students will learn the principles of graphic and numerical solutions of simple and compound piping detail. Students gain new knowledge on the analysis of flow in branched and circular networks. Attention is also paid to the work of the pump in the hydraulic control system and hydro transport system.
