COURSE OBJECTIVES:
1) To introduce the concept of different types of fluid flow and its characteristics.
2) To model flows using analytical techniques.
3) To introduce the effect of boundary layers on a flow and its effect on the flow properties.
4) To distinguish the effects of pressure waves, flame propagation and special types of flow in engine.
5) To introduce different methods of flow visualisation techniques with its instrumentation.

COURSE OUTCOMES :
On successful completion of this course, the students will be able to:
1) Use different approximations for the flow problem under consideration.
2) Model basic flows and develop codes for numerical flow visualization
3) Apply the concepts of viscous fluid flow for prediction of thickness of boundary layer and to predict overall flow characteristics.
4) Analyse compressible flow in engine like compression, knocking.
5) Select different flow visualisation techniques required for their experiments.
