Water systems
CIV2263
Synopsis
The unit focuses on fundamentals of hydraulics. Hydrostatics is first introduced with application to dam and gates. The basic equations of continuity, momentum and energy conservation are derived and applied to the design of pressurised pipelines. Flow in open channels is introduced with application to waterways, aqueducts and pipes flowing partly full; applications include design of spillways and culverts.
