Units, dimensional analysis, measurement, errors, report writing, fluid mechanics.
The main part of this course should provide a basic understanding of the behaviour of fluids and then students should be able to design pipe and pumping systems for single-phase fluids. There is also an introduction to systems of units, especially the SI system, and to dimensional analysis. A number of lectures are given on laboratory measurement and report writing. This course also includes some computing skills and laboratories.
