Fluid mechanics has a wide application in the field of engineering. To an engineer, thus it is crucial to study the basic principles and an application of fluid mechanics. To be specific, for Mechanical Engineering students, designing turbines, heat exchangers etc. are the study of interest. Structure for supplying water, such as irrigation canals, water supply system as well as storage structure like dams and protection against flood, that is flood wall are all fall within the scope of Civil Engineering. Designing the structures/ equipments, based on their area of application leads one to study the basic theory behind it.
