Outline Lectures 1 To 10 PDF

This document outlines the first ten lectures of an engineering sciences course on fluid mechanics. The lectures cover topics including dimensional analysis, heat and mass transfer, fluid statics, and an introduction to fluid motion. Specifically, the first few lectures discuss dimensional reasoning and analysis. Later lectures cover heat and mass transfer concepts like diffusion, conduction, and thermal fins. The fluid statics lectures explore pressure, forces on surfaces, surface tension, and Archimedes' principle. The tenth lecture wraps up statics and introduces the concept of fluid motion.
