course aims in Estonian
Aine eesmärk on anda tulevasele insenerile baasteadmised hüdrauliliste süsteemide toimimise alustest. Kursuse käigus omandatakse vajalikud kompetentsid ja saavutatakse võimekus tegutsemiseks klassikalise mehaanika valdkonnas, mis käsitleb vedelike käitumist nii paigalseisu kui ka liikumise olukorras. Tehniliste süsteemidega seotud probleemide lahendamine arendab insenerikutsele vajalikku loovat mõtlemist.
course aims in English
The purpose of this course is to give the basis for an engineer about the operation and management of hydraulic systems. During the course student will gain necessary competences and capability to orientate in the field of classical mechanics that deals with statics and dynamics of fluids. Solving real problems linked with technical systems will develop creative thinking that is useful for a future engineer.
learning outcomes in the course in Est.
Õppeaine läbinud üliõpilane:
- valdab hüdraulikaalast terminoloogiat, põhiühikuid ja -mõisteid;
- rakendab hüdrostaatika põhivõrrandit ja arvutab vedelike poolt tekitatavaid jõudusid ehitisele ja mahutile;
- eristab vedeliku voolamise režiime ja survekadude tüüpe ning seostab voolamisega seotud protsesse survesüsteemides;
- rakendab hüdrodünaamika põhivalemeid torustike dimensioneerimisel, kavandamisel ja analüüsil;
- määrab pumpade ja ventilaatorite tööpunkte ning -parameetreid erinevate töörežiimide ja ühenduste (rööp, jada, koos reservuaaridega) korral;
- eristab erinevaid pumba tüüpe ning valib süsteemi sobiva pumba.
learning outcomes in the course in Eng.
After completing this course the student:
- knows how to use correct terminology of hydraulics, main units and definitions;
- implements the hydrostatic equation and calculates static forces on constructions and tanks;
- distinguishes between the flow regimes and types of pressure losses and associates the flow processes in pressure flow systems;
- implements main equations of hydrodynamics to dimension, design and analyse flow in pipes;
- determines duty points and work parameters of pumps and fans in case of different work regimes and operations (e.g. parallel and series operation);
- distinguishes between different pump types and knows how to select a proper pump for the system.
brief description of the course in Estonian
Aine koosneb kolmest moodulist: 1) hüdrostaatika, mis on seotud hüdrostaatilise surve ja sellest tekkivate jõude arvutamisega tasapinnale ning kõverjoonelise kujuga pindadele, Archimedese seadus ja selle järeldused. 2) survesüsteemide hüdrodünaamikas vaadeldakse Bernoulli võrrandit ja selle rakendamist, vedeliku voolamise režiime, hüdrauliliste takistuste liigitust ja survekadude arvutusaluseid, hüdraulilist lööki survetorudes ning hüdraulilise modelleerimise aluseid. 3) pumpade moodulis tehakse ülevaade erinevatest pumpade liikidest, tutvustatakse labapumba teooriat ja nende kasutamist (ühendamine võrguga, tööpunkti reguleerimine), pumpade ja ventilaatorite sarnasuse teooriat ja koostööd, mahtpumpasid, ventilaatorite töö erijuhtumeid, energiaefektiivset masinate töö reguleerimist ja automatiseerimist.

Loengu käigus käsitletud teemad seotakse praktiliste probleemide lahendamisega harjutustunnis ja praktikumis läbi viidavate harjutusülesannete lahendamise ja laborimõõtmistega. Loengut toetavad Hüdrodünaamika teadus- ja katselaboris olevad hüdraulika ja pumpade õppestendid ning optimaalse veevõrgumudeli projekteerimise ja katsetamise stend, kus tudengitega viiakse läbi praktikume.
brief description of the course in English
The course is divided into three modules: hydrostatics, hydrodynamic in pressurized
and free surface flow systems and pumps. Main topics in the first module are
connected with hydrostatic pressure, static forces on surfaces and buoyancy,
Law of Archimedes. In Hydrodynamics in pressurized systems the main themes
are linked with Bernoulli equation and its applications, flow regimes, minor and
major losses and how to calculate them, water hammer in pipes and basis of
modelling. In pumps module the main topics are
classification of pumps, theory of centrifugal pumps, usage of centrifugal pumps
(connection with network, regulating the duty point), similarity of pumps and fans,
parallel and series operations, positive displacement pumps, energy efficient
regulating and automatization of pumps and fans. The topics will be connected
with practical problems that are solved during exercises and practices in the lab.
Lectures are supported by the test rigs for basic hydraulics, pumps and optimization of a water
network situated at the Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics. The lab is equipped with
state of the art measurement equipment that will be introduces to students during
the course.
type of assessment in Estonian
Kursuse lõpus toimub suuline eksam, mille osakaal koondhindest on 30%. Kursuse koondhinne kujuneb laboritööde (kokku kuni 30 punkti), iseseisvate teadmiste kontrolli testide (kokku kuni 15 punkti), kodutöö (kuni 25 punkti) ja suulise eksami (kuni 30 punkti) summana.
type of assessment in English
The course ends with an oral exam with a share of 30 % of the total grade. The overall score is the sum of lab assignments (total up to 30 points), individual tests (total up to 15 points), individual project (up to 25 points) and oral exam (up to 30 points).
independent study in Estonian
Laboratoorsete tööde arvutuste tegemine ja vormistamine rühmatööna.
Iseseisev tutvumine teooriaga.
independent study in English
Lab measurements, calculations and formulating the results. Individually getting to know the theory.
