सवाल
Which syllabus does the Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Machines Lab course follow?
It follows the AKTU (Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam Technical University, Lucknow) B.Tech syllabus for Fluid Mechanics and Fluid Machines Lab. If your own university's syllabus differs, the centre follows your university syllabus.
Will this help in the university examination?
Yes. Experiments are explained with aim, theory, procedure, observation table, calculation and viva questions, so you can write the lab file and face the practical exam confidently.
Is the lab practical done on real machines?
Yes. Experiments are done or demonstrated on venturimeter, notch, pipe friction, turbine and pump test rigs; where a rig is not available, the procedure is explained with real readings.
