Understand the fundamentals of fluid statics, including liquids at rest and pressure variation with depth. Explore how density, gravity, and height differences drive pressure in pharmaceutical flow.
Explore simple and differential manometers that measure pressure differences using immiscible liquids of varying densities, and learn their use in gas flow and small pressure measurements.
Explore fluid dynamics in pharmaceutical manufacturing, examining laminar and turbulent flow via the Rennolds experiment, and applying Bernoulli's theorem to pump design and flow measurement.
Explore energy losses in fluid flow beyond friction, including fittings, enlargement, and contraction, and apply Bernoulli's equation to determine velocity changes and measure flow for pharmaceutical process optimization.
Explore methods to measure flow rate, including orifice meters, Venturi meters, differential manometers, and rotameters, using Bernoulli's principle to relate velocity and pressure.
This course is designed to impart a fundamental knowledge on the art and science of Pharmaceutical Engineering and of various unit operations used in pharmaceutical industry. This course specifically deals with Fluid flow which is the flow of substances that are not permanently resistant to distortion. This Course will be useful for Bachelor of Pharmacy (B.Pharm) and Diploma in Pharmacy (D. Pharm) Students.
