Single phase fluid flow is considered for both gas and liquids. Newtonian and non-Newtonian concepts are introduced. Mass, energy and momentum balance equations, including Bernoulli's equation (mechanical energy) are developed and applied to various fluid flow systems. The concepts of laminar and turbulent flow regimes are discussed and applied to flow in pipes and network. Fluid metering is presented. Other topics include pump and compressors and flow through consolidated and unconsolidated porous media. Prerequisite(s): (CHEM 115.3 and MATH 223.3 (taken) or CHEM 146.3 and MATH 223.3 (taken)). Note:Students with credit for CE 225 will not receive credit for this course.
