Fluid Mechanics lab
- We will reproduce several of the experiments shown in the textbook, as many as we have time for. Some of these are amazing, almost puzzling, and you will like this lab session. IMPORTANT: Remember to bring your textbook! You can finish the entire lab writeup before you leave, if you're fast. If you need more time, you can upload it to Canvas later.
