Description

Fluid Mechanics is an important subject that deals with various aspects of motion of a fluid when it is subjected to a system of forces. In this video series, we will look at the subject based on general laws of physics and experimental evidence. We will start with the properties of fluids and then gradually move on to cover fluid statics and dynamics, and conclude the tutorial with Fluid Machinery like pumps, turbines, etc.

Audience

These video classes have been developed based on the latest GATE syllabus and will be useful for Mechanical Engineering students as well as those preparing for GATE exams. It will also be helpful for students in preparing them for their Engineering Syllabus.
