<objectives>After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the basics of fluid mechanical quantities and laws. They will be able to apply the laws of fluid mechanics to simple practical problems in hydrostatics and hydrodynamics. 
Students will be able to describe well-known types of pistons and turbomachinery, including their basic structure, function, application possibilities and operating behavior.</objectives>
