Unavailable to students with credit for ENGI275 or ENGI2131. Flowing fluid characteristics are studied using a control volume approach to develop continuity, momentum, and energy relationships. Other topics examined include dimensional analysis, similitude, flow characteristics in conduits, and an exploration of flow measurement techniques and devices. Related issues presented include reversibility, thermal efficiency, entropy, and exergy. The course concludes with an understanding of gas and vapour power cycles and gas mixture properties.
