Summary

In the subject "Fluid Mechanisms", students deal with function, structure, properties and applications of fluid, i.e. hydraulic and pneumatic mechanisms. The subject is divided into the following sections: general introduction, basic calculations of fluid mechanisms, elements of fluid systems, their construction, functions and characteristics, hydraulic and pneumatic drives and transmissions, including ways of their control, application of fluid mechanisms. The exercise is focused on calculations of fluid mechanisms and laboratory measurements.
