COURSE OBJECTIVES: The objective is to show how the equations of conservation of mass and momentum can be used to solve problems in fluid mechanics. What sort of equations should one derive for determination of forces, velocities, streamlines, shear rates, shear stresses and pressure. What kinds of approximations are appropriate for internal and external laminar and turbulent flows? How do the calculations relate to experimental observations and how the results can be used for design purposes involving tubes, ducts, pipelines and pumps? REQUIRED TEXT: P.J. Pritchard Fox and McDonald's Introduction to Fluid Mechanics 8th ed., Wiley & Sons, 2011, Hardcover J. Vlachopoulos, Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics, Draft Edition, 2008, selected parts to be posted on AVENUE.

ADDITIONAL RESOURCE:

NOTES ON TEXT: The same Fox & McDonald book was used last semester for this course (and also in Mech Eng Fluid Mechanics course) and so there may be used copies available on campus (at bookstore or elsewhere). There are other options: i. Fox et al., Introduction to Fluid Mechanics SI Version, 8th ed., Wiley & Sons, 2012, Full text, colour, paperback

ii. Fox et al., Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 7th ed., Wiley & Sons, 2009, Full text, colour, hard cover (used in previous years and thus is likely available as a used text). iii. There is an 8th edition e-book version available from Wiley. However, there is problem that there is no way to bring the ebook into a test or an examination.

*The value of any work that is missed with a valid McMaster Student Absence Form (MSAF), will be moved to the Final Exam Grade. The final grade percentage for each student will be determined using the grading scheme that gives the highest value. NOTE this option does NOT apply to students who miss either of the midterm tests with a MSAF; the final grade percentage for those students will be determined only using Grading Scheme #1 with the value of the missed midterm test being moved to the final exam. The final letter grade will be calculated using the Registrars recommended procedure. Adjustments (up only) to the final grades may be done at the discretion of the instructors. ASSIGNMENTS: Do not put a cover page on your assignment it is a waste of paper! Assignments will be due by the start of the class on the day it is due. Late assignments will be accepted in the Chemical Engineering office (JHE 374) until 4:30 pm on the due date and will be penalized by one full point (see below). Excused lateness must be worked out with the instructors before the assignment is due, or submit a MSAF.

Assignments will be evaluated as follows: 4 points: Homework is complete and neatly done. All solutions are correct. All work is logically presented and demonstrates a strong understanding of the subject material. 3 points: Homework is complete and neatly done. Most solutions are correct. Most work is logically presented and demonstrates a sound understanding of the subject material. 2 points: Homework is complete and legible. Some solutions are correct. Work occasionally lacks logic but demonstrates a developing understanding of subject material. 1 point: Homework was handed in but is incomplete and/or illegible. Work is poorly presented and does not demonstrate an understanding of the subject material. 0 points: Homework was not handed in.

All assignments must be done on 8.5 x 11 paper. The work must be neat with intermediate calculations and assumptions shown. The final answer with units should be boxed. Your name and student number must be on the top of each page else no mark will be given. Assignments done in pencil will not be re-marked. Blatant copying or cloning of assignments will be treated as academic dishonesty and will be penalized (usually zero and the infraction will be reported to the Academic Integrity office, McMaster). You are encouraged to work on the problems with your colleagues and to seek the assistance of the TAs or instructors if necessary, but direct copying of the solutions from another student or any other source is NOT acceptable. TESTS & FINAL EXAMINATION: Test 1 Test 2 Exam Details Tuesday T28 (Tennis Court 1 February 12th Temporary Building) 001 Tuesday T28 (Tennis Court 1 March 19th Temporary Building) 001 Comments Tests, in lecture periods. 9:30 10:20

The date, time, and place will be announced by the registrar

Students will be allowed to bring in their textbook (Fox only), McMaster Engineeringapproved calculator, and any notes into tests and the final examination. Tests written in pencil will not be considered for re-marking. Any evidence of copying or use of unauthorized aids (including cell phones, PDA, Blackberry, etc.) will be treated as a case of academic dishonesty. For more examples/definition of academic dishonesty, see the discussion below. Missed Test Absence without an excuse will result in a grade of zero for a test or exam. If you have a legitimate medical/personal reason for missing a test or exam you should present suitable documentation via the on-line McMaster Student Absence Form (MSAF). Cell Phones and other Electronic Communication Devices - Cell phones and other electronic communication devices (such as iPods and Blackberries) are not permitted in Tests or the Final Examination. Such devices MUST be turned off and left at the front or back of the room. If a student is found to have such a device on their person it will be assumed that they are cheating and they will be charged as such. If you require such a device for a special need please discuss this with the instructors before the first Test. FLUIDS IN THE NEWS EXTRA CREDIT: You can earn up to a 3% bonus towards your overall grade by submitting a Fluids in the News contribution. Look online, in newspapers, and in magazines for examples of research articles that involve the topics covered in this course and solve real-world problems/applications. The research article MUST be from a peer-reviewed journal. To earn the credit you must send me an email with the following: A reference for where you found the story A PDF copy of the research article (a link to the article is fine too) A well-written, short (<300 word) summary including a brief discussion of how the material relates to this class This can be submitted anytime during the semester up until Friday April 5th.

ADDITIONAL NOTES: Snow Day Policy In the event of a snow day, a test will be give one week after its original date if possible. In the event of a snow day, assignments are due the next class, at the beginning of class. Picking up Tests and Assignments - University policy requires that students must pickup their own work directly. Therefore you must see the TA, to be designated, to pickup your work. There will be no general drop off of marked work in any location. As much as time permits, work will be returned during the scheduled tutorials periods. E-Mail and AVENUE - Each class member is expected to have a McMaster e-mail address and to access the AVENUE system regularly. Information (sometimes important information) to the class will be transmitted via AVENUE. Cell Phones and Texting Devices Neither phones nor texting devices are allowed to be used in lectures or tutorials without permission by the instructor. These devices are disruptive to the class, so students are required to leave the room if they must be used. Refer to further policies above in regards to tests and exams. CENTRE FOR STUDENT DEVELOPMENT: Students with disabilities can receive accommodations to assist them in the completion of their assignments and exams. Please contact the Centre for Student Development for advice and for arranging assistance. Further info at: http://csd.mcmaster.ca SENATE AND THE FACULTY OF ENGINEERING POLICIES The Faculty of Engineering is concerned with ensuring an environment that is free of all adverse discrimination. If there is a problem, that cannot be resolved by discussion among the persons concerned, individuals are reminded that they should contact the Department Chair, the Sexual Harassment Officer or the Human Rights Consultant, as soon as possible. Academic Integrity: You are expected to exhibit honesty and use ethical behaviour in all aspects of the Learning process. Academic credentials you earn are rooted in principles of honesty and academic integrity. Academic dishonesty is to knowingly act or fail to act in a way that results or could result in unearned academic credit or advantage. This behaviour can result in serious consequences, e.g. the grade of zero on an assignment, loss of credit with a notation on the transcript (notation reads: "Grade of F assigned for academic dishonesty"), and/or suspension or expulsion from the university. It is your responsibility to understand what constitutes academic dishonesty. For information the various types of academic dishonesty please refer to the Academic Integrity Policy, located at http://www.mcmaster.ca/academicintegrity The following illustrates only three forms of academic dishonesty: 1. Plagiarism, e.g. the submission of work that is not one's own or for which other credit has been obtained. ** 2. Improper collaboration in group work. ** 3. Copying or using unauthorized aids in tests and examinations. ** ** see page 3-4: on Tests/Final Exam and Assignments
