This unit covers the basic principles and essential concepts of fluid mechanics. Students will be given real-world engineering examples to demonstrate how their knowledge of fluid mechanics can be applied to engineering projects. Foundational physics principles will be emphasised in developing a fundamental understanding of fluid mechanics.
Students must pass 1 unit from ENS1101 or SCP1111
MAT2437 or ENS5170 must be taken concurrently with ENM3218 if students have not previously passed MAT2437 or ENS5170.
