No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1968–69 to 1968–69 (before that, 1963–64 used the number for Fluid Mechanics); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.
Analysis of fluid properties and fluid flow as they apply to the design and application of components comprising the fluid control system. Proportional, integral, derivative and hybrid type fluid control systems and examples. Energy transducers in fluid control systems: performance characteristics of various types of pump and fluid motor units and actuators.
As printed in the 1968–69 calendar, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.
