Lecture
This lecture focuses on applying Bernoulli's equation to analyze real-world fluid mechanics problems, such as speed sensors on aircraft like the pitot tube. The instructor explains how the pitot tube works, the tragic consequences of sensor failure, and the principles behind measuring airspeed. Additionally, the lecture covers the Venturi meter as a tool for measuring flow rates in pipes, emphasizing the importance of assumptions and using fundamental laws like Bernoulli's equation and mass conservation to solve practical engineering problems.
