Course Overview

The course on Fluid Flow Operations by Swayam is formulated as a MOOCS programme for junior engineers or students who are currently studying- mechanical, chemical, or civil engineering. In the online certification programme, efforts will be made by the course instructors  to introduce the registered students or engineers to the concept of- fluid mechanics. Explanations and video lectures by the instructors will make the syllabus for the students  to understand easily. 

The programme also includes comparing the theories with actual phenomena and recent information. The following key principles will be included in the course-  circulation, steady flow and unsteady flow, Reynolds number, streamline and stream tube, rotation and spinning of a liquid, three-dimensional, two-dimensional and one-dimensional flow and others will be covered by the candidates over the period of twelve weeks. During the Fluid Flow Operations programme, special emphasis will be given on real multiphase flow phenomena with specific applications.
