Hydraulic engineering is the application of fluid mechanics principles to problems dealing with the collection, storage, control, transport, regulation, measurement, and use of water.

This course provides step-by-step procedures to help you understand and solve hydraulic problems. The course covers dimensional analysis and hydraulic models, application of continuity and momentum principles to pipe and open channel flow and steady, open-channel flow under uniform, rapidly and gradually varied conditions.

Numerous sample problems are presented and solved to aid in your understanding of the material.

Specific Knowledge or Skill Obtained

This course teaches the following specific knowledge and skills:

  • Application of the continuity and energy equations
  • Dimensional analysis and how to simplify complex physical problems
  • Similitude and how to design and analyze an experimental model that corresponds to specific prototype problems
  • Application of continuity and momentum principles and how to apply in hydraulics
  • Channel flow design under uniform and rapidly or gradually varied conditions
  • How to calculate friction loss in a closed conduit using various methods

Certificate of Completion

You will be able to immediately print a certificate of completion after passing a multiple-choice quiz consisting of 15 questions. PDH credits are not awarded until the course is completed and quiz is passed.
