Course description and aims
Hydraulics I mainly covers nonviscous (ideal) fluids among various water flows. Students will understand fundamental concepts and principles on hydraulics such as Euler equation of motion, Bernoulli's theorem (conservation of energy), equation of continuity (conservation of mass), and conservation of momentum, and also study examples of their applications to various hydraulic phenomena (for example, Pitot tube, Torricelli theorem, U-shaped tube, forces on curved pipe sections, drag forces on objects, etc.). Students will also understand that velocity potentials, flow functions, pressure equations, etc., and how to apply such principal to the vortex-free flow (e.g., blade weir flows, wave flows, etc.). Viscous fluid is mainly treated in Hydraulics II (open channel, pipeline, etc.), but in Hydraulics I, students learn the mathematical derivation and application of Navier-Stokes equation (Poiseuille flow, etc.) through the concept and formulation of viscous stress and shear stress. In the second half of this class, students learn not only how to apply the above-mentioned hydraulic concepts and principles to blade weir flows and wave flows, but also specific experimental techniques and analytical examples. Understanding of water flow is essential for the maintenance and management of a safe and healthy environment in lakes, rivers, and coastal marine areas. By understanding the basic principles and fundamental phenomena of water flow in this lecture, students will be able to understand the complex and diverse aspects of water flow in the real environment and gain a foundation for further in-depth study of flow and environmental phenomena occurring in rivers, lakes, and coastal.
Student learning outcomes
By taking this course, students will acquire the following abilities
1. Fully understand the fundamental concepts and principles of hydraulics, such as Euler equation of motion, Bernoulli's theorem (conservation of energy law), continuity equation (conservation of mass law), momentum conservation equation, Navier-Stokes equation, etc., and be able to derivative the equations.
2. To be able to apply the above basic concepts and principles of hydraulics to actual hydraulic phenomena (Pitot tube, Torricelli theorem, U-tube, force acting on a curved pipe, drag force acting on an object, etc.).
3. To be able to apply hydraulic principles such as velocity potentials and flow functions (etc) that can be treated as vortex-free (potential flow, blade weir flow, wave flow, etc.)
4. To be able to apply specific experimental and analytical methods, as well as the hydraulic concepts and principles described above, to blade weir flows and wave flows.
