Learning outcomes |
The course aims to present and discuss the analytical formulation of Industrial Fluid Mechanics in practical engineering situations. It enables students to solve problems involving: fluid networks, fluid-driven and fluid-powered machines, their control, and incorporation into fluid network systems. It trains students in solving internal and external flow problems using computational tools. Provide laboratory experience in the validation of numerically modeled problems. Understand the different origins of unsteady flow and vibrations induced by moving fluids. Present and discuss the formulation and practical applications to engineering of electrohydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics..

Syllabus |
The program content covers the following topics:
1. Introduction.
2. External flows: Resultant force on a body immersed in a flow, friction and pressure components, and aerodynamic coefficients.
3. Fluid transport lines: pressure loss in the line; pipe networks (Hardy method). PumpSIM software. Incorporation of pumps, fans, and prime movers.
4. Energy generation and conversion machines: turbines, pumps, and compressors; governing equations; performance analysis and characteristic operating curves.
5. Speed triangles and turbo machine control.
6. Water hammer and unsteady effects in pipe flows. Oscillation period in pipes with viscous damping.
7. Vibrations induced by fluid flow. Natural and flow-induced frequencies.
8. Introduction to electrohydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics.
9. Solidworks Flow Simulation for the study and design of fluid systems.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The teaching method combines theoretical exposition with the resolution of practical cases covering the framework of the topics, concepts, and theory, simplifying hypotheses, and techniques inherent to each of the subjects taught.
Class attendance aims to facilitate the understanding of concepts, techniques, and methods of analysis, and the interpretation of methods associated with the main approaches to fluid mechanics in an industrial context.
Support materials for teaching classes and solving exercises by students will be made available in the course area on the Moodle platform.
The assessment criteria consist of practical work to be discussed in a brief report, the study of a piping installation with a pumping system, a knowledge assessment test, and a mini-project for industrial application.
