1 STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY CANTON, NEW YORK COURSE OUTLINE CONS 322 HYDRAULICS Prepared By: Joseph Reilly CANINO SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY CIVIL AND CONSTRUCTION TECHNOLOGY DEPARTMENT May 2015

2 CONS 322 HYDRAULICS A. TITLE: Hydraulics B. COURSE NUMBER: CONS 322 C. CREDIT HOURS: 4 D. WRITING INTENSIVE COURSE: no E. COURSE LENGTH: 15 Weeks F. SEMESTER(S) OFFERED: Spring G. HOURS OF LECTURE, LABORATORY, RECITATION, TUTORIAL, ACTIVITY: 3 one hour lectures plus 1 three hour laboratory per week H. CATALOG DESCRIPTION: The basics of fluid mechanics and their application to Civil Engineering Technology are considered. Fundamental concepts presented are fluid properties, specific weight, density, specific gravity and absolute and kinematic viscosity. Major topic areas covered are: resultant force and center of pressure on submerged surfaces, flow of liquids in closed conduits including pressure losses and pump requirements, flow in open channels and sewer design and flow and pressure measurement techniques. I. PRE-REQUISITES/CO-COURSES: Pre-requisites: CONS 272 (Strength of Materials for Technicians) or permission of instructor. J. GOALS (STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES): By the end of this course, the student will be able to: Course Objective a) solve problems pertaining to fluid mechanics in both English and SI units. b) calculate pressure as a function of depth and the resultant force from water pressure and its point of application on fully and partially submerged surfaces. c) calculate and measure the buoyant force on a fully or partially submerged object. d) calibrate a pressure gauge and prepare written instructions for application of the calibration data. e) solve problems pertaining to steady state flow including determination of Reynold s Number to differentiate between Laminar and Turbulent Flow and Friction Losses in turbulent pipe flow. f) calculate discharge, velocity and pressure and draw the hydraulic and energy grade lines for a simple hydraulic Institutional SLO 1. Communication

3 system g) calculate flow through hydraulic devices, perform calibration tests for such devices and prepare written instructions for application of the calibration data. h) calculate discharge in open channels i) design a sanitary or storm sewer for a small residential development and prepare a design report. 1.
