Fundamentals of Fluid Measurement

Summary

Acquire the measurement methods of flow property such as velocity, flow rate and pressure

Course Contents

1. Lectures

・Characteristics of flow
・Basics of fluid measurement

2. Practical Training

・Flow rate measurement
・Pressure measurement
・Measurement of fluid machinery characteristics

Structure and Schedule

Lectures will be given using books and reference material specified in the package. Progress will be presented in seminar style followed by written submission as a report. Experiments will take place according to the procedure specified in the package. Reports will be made once per week and meetings will be called as needed.

Course Option

Exercise problems related to the theme will be decided upon through private consultation with each student

Course Objectives

It is important to avoid affecting the phenomenon itself when measuring flow phenomena. Through practical training, students will set up their own measurement plans, implement and link them to basic knowledge acquired through studying texts.

Fundamental skills required for the course

It is desirable that students to have a basic knowledge of fluid engineering.

Examples of Research Theme Combination

The following list shows examples of research projects that can be combined with this course.
"Measurement of fluid device characteristics"
"Sophistication of fluid sensors"

Assessment of academic achievement

Scores will be given on a scale of 1 to 5 for the items listed below. An average score of 3.5 is considered a passing score.

(1) Level of understanding of the basics of fluid measurement
(2) Level of achievement in fluid measurement planning
(3) Level of achievement in measurement and the understanding of results
(4) Final presentation and report
