2. Pre-Requisites

It is required that the student has a basic knowledge of Fluid Mechanics acquired during Industrial Engineering degree or equivalent. Basic knowledge of Physics, Algebra and Calculus is also required.

 

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
Progress Tests 30.00% 0.00% Partial exam
Practicum and practical activities reports assessment 20.00% 20.00% Practices
Theoretical papers assessment 20.00% 20.00% Report
Final test 30.00% 60.00% Final Exam
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:
    The minimum score to consider the progress test must be 4 at each one. Practices and theoretical paper reports are essential to carry out the continuous evaluation. Failure to pass the progress tests and / or the final test will imply an overall grade for the subject less than 5 points, which will correspond to the score obtained in the last exam (the second progress test or the final test).

    Those students who have not submitted a practice report will take a written exam of the practices, which represents 20% of the final grade. For students who have submitted a practice report, this mark will be maintained in the ordinary session, which represents 20% of the final mark. The student can keep this mark until the end of the course. Otherwise, they will take a practice exam in the extraordinary session.

    Those students who have not submitted theoretical paper assessment report will take a written exam about that, which represents 20% of the final grade. For students who have submitted the report, this will be their grade corresponding to it in the ordinary session, which represents 20% of the final grade. The student can keep this mark until the end of the course. Otherwise, they will take an exam of this part in the extraordinary session.

    During the final test, the use of programmable calculators or similar will not be allowed. No electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, etc are allowed. Other devices which use wireless network will not be allowed.
  • Non-continuous evaluation:
    Students under non-continuous assessment will take three exams in the ordinary session: final test (60% of the total mark); practice exam (20% of the total mark); theoretical paper exam (20% of the total mark).

    To consider the mark in the final test it must be equal to or greater than 4, if not the overall mark will be the one obtained in this test.

    During the final test, the use of programmable calculators or similar will not be allowed. No electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, etc are allowed. Other devices which use wireless network will not be allowed.

Specifications for the resit/retake exam:
Students who take the final exam will take a final test that represent 60% of the total grade. To consider the mark in the final test it must be equal to or greater than 4, if not the overall mark will be the one obtained in this test.

Students who have not submitted a practice report, or have obtained a grade lower than 4 in the practice report or in the ordinary practice exam, will take a written exam of the same, which will represent 20% of the final grade.

Students who have not submitted a theoretical paper report or have obtained a grade lower than 4 in the ordinary exam will take a written exam for this part, which will represent 20% of the final grade .

During the final test, the use of programmable calculators or similar will not be allowed. No electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, etc are allowed. Other devices which use wireless network will not be allowed.

Failure to pass the compulsory activities (final test) will imply an overall grade for the subject of less than 5 points, which will correspond to the grade obtained in the final test.
Specifications for the second resit / retake exam:
In this case, it will be carry out only one final exam, representing 100% of the final mark. It is required to get at least 5 over 10 to pass the exam.
