Fluid Mechanics Module 2 - Fluid Statics - Manometry
8 videos • 12,151 views • by College Fluid Mechanics Module 2: Fluid Statics -- Manometry In modules 2 and 3, we cover essential real-life applications of fluids in which the fluid is either stationary or moving with a constant velocity. For both these cases, the shear stresses become zero, and all primary stresses become minus pressure, which simplifies the mathematics significantly when compared to fluid dynamics applications. Specifically, in module 2, we apply our finding to manometry. A manometer is a pressure measuring device that uses a standard technique for measuring pressure involves the use of liquid columns in vertical or inclined tubes. Student Learning Outcomes: After completing this module, you should be able to: 1) Determine the pressure at various locations in a fluid at rest 2) Explain the concept of manometers and apply appropriate equations to determine the pressure
