Irrigation and Drainage Technology

The purpose of this module is to give students a wider understanding of principles of water, the importance of Fluid Mechanics and hydraulics, and both open channel and pipe flows. It provides a clear understanding of water resources and processes related to the movement of water above, on and below the earth surface. It provides basic knowledge on design of both open and closed channels.

The main objectives and contents of this course are based on understanding of principles behind behaviour of fluids especially water at rest and in motion.
