Abstract: Pressure pipe flow -and in particular flow transients- is a complex topic to be taught with classical teaching methods. In this manuscript, I report my experience of a flipped classroom for teaching pressure pipe flow. The course was organized in 14 modules. Each module consisted in 4.5 hours self-study (theory) and 4.5 hours classroom (programming and applications). With this approach, students were motivated to study and understand day-by-day theory. At the end of the course, students successfully master to write scripts to solve (with the method of the characteristics) flow transient problems of real-world engineering case studies.
