Goal(s)

This course, organized around theoretical and experimental activities, aims to train engineering students on essential concepts in hydraulic systems, machines and their coupling with hydraulic circuits. The proposed case studies concerns concrete issues existing in the industry.
The course presents practical approaches of the fluid mechanics conservation equations. It introduces some methods to treat pipes networks problems and trains students to solve industrial problems related to hydraulic machineries.
The course presents also the theory of the transient hydraulic regimes. It sensitizes students to the problems of hydraulic instabilities and related issues.
