The document outlines fluid analysis assignments for 6 groups. Each group is assigned to analyze the pressure and velocity distributions of fluid flow through a different geometry, such as a U-tube, sphere, S-pipe, etc. The groups must assume non-slip boundary conditions and model either air or water flow with given inlet and outlet velocities or pressures.
