Questions
Which experiments are done?
Bernoulli verification, venturimeter, orifice, notches, pipe friction, Reynolds, impact of jets, turbine and pump tests.
Does the course help with viva?
Yes. Each experiment ends with the common viva questions and their answers.
Is this course based on the BTEUP syllabus?
Yes. The units follow the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) diploma syllabus. If your polytechnic follows a different board or a revised scheme, the centre teaches your own syllabus.
