COURSE SYLLABUS

1. Course Code: CHE134-1P

2. Course Title: FLOW OF FLUIDS

3. Pre-requisite: CHE121-1P

4. Co-requisite: CHE130-1P

5. Credit: 3

6. Course Description:

This course deals with the fundamental concepts of the two branches of fluid mechanics (statics and
dynamics) which are important in unit operations. The combined Mass, Energy and Momentum balances
are applied in compressible or incompressible fluid flow, branching of fluids in transport, steady or
unsteady flow, including metering of fluids that are important in the design of fluid flow piping network.
The course ends with the discussion on the design of different types of filtration equipment operated at
constant pressure, constant rate or combined constant pressure and constant rate. Design of continuous
rotary vacuum filter is also discussed.

13.1. Other Course Policies

a. Attendance
According to CHED policy, total number of absences by the students should not be more than
20% of the total number of meetings or 9 hrs for this three-unit-course.
Student incurring more than 9 hours of unexcused absences automatically gets a failing grade
regardless of class standing.

b. Homework, Written Reports, Reaction Papers

Homework and other assigned coursework are due at the beginning of the class period of the
specified due date. Late assignments are not accepted.

 c. Language of Instruction
Lectures, discussion, and documentation will be in English. Written and spoken work may receive
a lower mark if it is, in the opinion of the instructor, deficient in English.

d. Honor, Dress and Grooming Codes

All of us have been instructed on the Dress and Grooming Codes of the Institute. We have all
committed to obey and sustain these codes. It will be expected in this class that each of us will
honor the commitments that we have made. For this course the Honor Code is that there will be
no plagiarizing on written work and no cheating on exams. Proper citation must be given to
authors whose works were used in the process of developing instructional materials and learning
in this course. If a student is caught cheating on an exam, he or she will be given zero mark for
the exam. If a student is caught cheating twice, the student will be referred to the Prefect of
Student Affairs and be given a failing grade.

e. Consultation Schedule
Consultation schedules with the Professor are posted outside the ChE-Chm Faculty room and in
the Schools web-page ( http://che-chm.mapua.edu.ph ). It is recommended that the student first
set an appointment to confirm the instructor’s availability.
