This lab enables students to understand fluid behavior in various conditions and applications. It's essential for designing efficient systems in fields such as civil, mechanical, and chemical engineering. The following experiments are conducted in this lab:

• Measurement of Reynolds number
• Concept of viscosity and measurement of liquid viscosity using falling ball viscometer
• Measurement of tank efflux time
• Concept of fixed and fluidized beds and measurement and investigation of pressure drop in fixed and fluidized bed
• Performance and  characterization of flow meters
• Concept of pumps and investigation of series and parallel pumps and cavitation
• Friction factor in pipes and local pressure drop
• Measurement of pressure drop in different fittings

Through the laboratory experience students can do the following:

• Develop deeper understanding of concepts.
• Experience phenomena directly.
• Connect book knowledge to real-world applications.
• Apply concepts to new situations and solve authentic problems.
• Develop thinking skills (critical, quantitative, qualitative).
• Develop data analysis skills.
• Develop experimental skills (e.g., design, observation, and use of equipment).
• Develop communication skills, including those involved in working in groups.
• Develop an appreciation for research in the field.
