Fluid mechanics is the study of the behavior of fluids, which includes liquids and gases, under various forces and conditions. It is a fundamental discipline in engineering and physics, with numerous applications in various fields, including civil, mechanical, aerospace, and chemical engineering. Hydraulic machines, in particular, are devices that utilize fluid mechanics to transmit and convert energy.
