Reflection and Reform on Teaching Methods in Engineering Fluid Mechanics in the Basic Course of Oil and Gas Storage and Transportation Engineering

油气储运工程专业是一门跨学科领域，工程流体力学课程在其中具有重要的基础性地位。传统的教学方法过于注重理论知识的传授，缺乏与实际工程应用的结合，导致学生在面对复杂的工程问题时缺乏解决方案和创新思维。本文分析了当前教学模式的不足，并提出了教学改革方案，主要包括案例教学、实验教学和虚拟仿真等手段。通过引入多种教学方式，旨在提升学生对流体力学理论的理解与应用，增强其解决实际工程问题的能力。教学改革的理论依据基于建构主义学习理论与认知负荷理论，同时也结合了混合式学习、翻转课堂和问题导向学习等创新教学模式。通过对《工程流体力学》课程内容的优化和教学方法的改革，期望能够为油气储运领域培养出具有综合能力的高素质人才。The Oil and Gas Storage and Transportation Engineering program is an interdisciplinary field, and the fluid mechanics course holds a crucial foundational position within it. Traditional teaching methods focus excessively on the transmission of theoretical knowledge, lacking integration with practical engineering applications. This leads to students being unprepared to solve complex engineering problems and lacking innovative thinking. This paper analyzes the shortcomings of the current teaching model and proposes a teaching reform plan, which primarily includes case-based teaching, experimental teaching, and virtual simulation. By introducing various teaching methods, the aim is to enhance students’ understanding and application of fluid mechanics theory and strengthen their ability to solve practical engineering problems. The theoretical foundation of the teaching reform is based on constructivist learning theory and cognitive load theory, while also incorporating innovative teaching models such as blended learning, flipped classrooms, and problem-based learning. Through the optimization of the “Engineering Fluid Mechanics” course content and the reform of teaching methods, it is expected to cultivate high-quality, well-rounded talents with comprehensive abilities for the oil and gas storage and transportation field.
