Measurement in fluid mechanics (ME)

Informations générales

  • ECTS

    ECTS 2

Goal(s)

To apply the concepts of fluid mechanics (as well as data acquisition and data processing) for a quantitative analysis of real-life flows.

Content(s)

Force measurement on a cylinder (direct measurement using a force, integration of the wall pressure field, measurement of the velocity profile in the wake and application of Euler theorem)

Flowrate measurement (flowrate in a pipe, spillway)

Fan (Rateau coefficients for a rotating machine)

Laminar-turbulent transition

Water hammer

Frequential analysis of the signal delivered by a hotwire : application to the evaluation of the vortex shedding frequency for the flow over a cylinder

Free-surface flows

Other possible experimentations :

head loss
jet characterization / impact of a jet on a plate
pump
air lift


Prerequisites :
Fluid Mechanics course and some knowledge of data processing

Test

Average of the grade obtained for each of the 5 experimentations (TP) to carry out (report + evaluation during each TP)
