This lecture introduces fundamental concepts in fluid physics, covering mass and stress balances, pressure, pressure losses, and flow descriptions. It explores complex fluids like atmospheric and vortex flows, emphasizing material balances and peculiarities in force and energy. The course aims to help students describe and predict fluid behavior in control volumes, preparing them for real-world applications.
