2. Pre-Requisites
It is required that the student has a basic knowledge of Fluid Mechanics, Mathematics and Physics. This knowledge could have been acquired during Industrial Engineering degree or equivalent.
3. Justification in the curriculum, relation to other subjects and to the profession
The course provides the basic knowledge and skills for the study of viscous fluids and turbulent flows using simple mathematical models which are applied in real situations. Therefore it is important the use of differential equations as well as basic knowledge in classical mechanic and fluid mechanics. To develop these models some assumptions about the problem must be carried out, as well as to analyze whether the model is useful to explain phenomena observed in laboratory. Fluid Mechanics is vast and covers a broad range of modern technologies, such as the design of fluid machinery.Indeed, it is an important branch of classical physics which is related to several technological fields and with some relevant challenges, such as the problem of turbulence. It is a basic and fundamental subject because it is applied in many fields within Natural Sciences and Engineering: astronomy, aerodynamic, propulsion, combustion, biofluids, meteorology, oceanography, hydraulic, acoustics, nanotechnology and turbulent flows, etc.

8. Evaluation criteria and Grading System
| Evaluation System | Continuous assessment | Non-continuous evaluation * | Description |
| Theoretical papers assessment | 10.00% | 10.00% | During the course several tasks or activities will be carried out. Those students who do not perform this activity will make a specific test of that part in the final test. To consider the task mark, it is mandatory to present at least 70% of the total task number and minimum mean score of 4. |
| Final test | 70.00% | 70.00% | The final test mark represent 70% on the final mark. It is required a minimum score of 5 to pass the subject. In case of score less than 5 the global mark will be this one. Those students who have not carried out practices report will make a specific exam of practices in the final test, which represents 20% on the final mark. Those students who have not carried out the tasks or activities will make a specific exam of that part in the final test, which represents 10% on the final grade. |
| Practicum and practical activities reports assessment | 20.00% | 20.00% | Several practices will be carried out during the course. A practice report must be submitted before the final test. Whether practices reports are not presented the students must do an exam of that part in the final test. |
| Total: | 100.00% | 100.00% |
According to art. 4 of the UCLM Student Evaluation Regulations, it must be provided to students who cannot regularly attend face-to-face training activities the passing of the subject, having the right (art. 12.2) to be globally graded, in 2 annual calls per subject , an ordinary and an extraordinary one (evaluating 100% of the competences).
Evaluation criteria for the final exam:
-
Continuous assessment:Students must do a final test, which represents 70 % over the total mark. It is required a minimum score of 5 to pass the subject. In case of score less than 5 the global mark will be this one.
Students who did not submit a practice report will do a practice exam, which represents 20 % of the total mark. For students who have submitted practice report, that mark will represent 20 % of the total mark.
Students who did not submit a task report will do a task exam, which represents 10 % of the total mark. For students who have submitted task report, that mark will represent 10 % of the total mark.
