Podcast on the subject of calculus and differentiation. Florencia Tettamanti, a mathematician working on fluid dynamics, discusses how she uses calculus to study the motion of fluids like air and water, and...
Twenty-five hundred years before modern air travel the ancient Chinese had learned the complicated principles of fluid and aerodynamics. The notion of "hard air" (air pressure) was understood by Taoist monks...
Thermodynamics (8 modules): heat, work, energy, steady flow energy, steam, gas laws, applications.
Tutorial to guide students through completion of two experiments: measuring jet thrust, and pressure losses across a pipeline. The program describes the experiments and equipment and asks students to enter...
Focuses on momentum changes in fluid flow by analysing various demonstrations of a water jet hitting surfaces with different shapes. Calculates the changes in momentum of a constant flow of water hitting a...
Examines flow problems in laboratory models and practical situations, including the wash produced by a boat on a canal, and a tidal wave in a harbour. Discusses the value of models and analyses their...
1: Introduces some fo the properties exhibited by fluids and materials which under conditions behave like a fluid: flow and viscostiy; buoyancy; hydrostatic pressure; and surface energy. Also covers...
Examines the theory and practice behind gas and steam turbines.
Five sections which illustrate aspects of fluid flows. 1: The no-slip condition between a fluid and a wall, flow over a thin plate, laminar and turbulent flows, flow over a section of a cylinder and the...
