Course detail
Hydraulic Processes
FSI-DHPAcad. year: 2020/2021
The course provides students with basic theories of mechanics of liquids and gases (fluids) so that they are able to apply them to simple systems, to explain and predict their behavior. Acquired knowledge is a prerequisite for understanding the theoretical foundations of modern technical disciplines. Findings from this course can be applied in many industrial fields.
