Fluid Mechanics
Introduction Definitions
  • Density: Mass of a material per unit volume
    • ρ =
      lim
      ΔV→0
      Δm
      ΔV
      , where ρ is the density, Δm is the mass of infinitesimal volume, and ΔV is the volume of infinitesimal object
  • Specific Weight: Weight of a material per unit volume
    • γ =
      lim
      ΔV→0
      ΔW
      ΔV
      , where γ is the specific weight and ΔW is the weight of infinitesimal volume
    • γ = ρg, where g is the gravitation acceleration
  • Specific Gravity: The ratio of the specific weight of a material to the specific weight of water; equivalent to the ratio of the density of a material to the density of water
    • Gs =
      γ
      γw
      =
      ρ
      ρw
      , where γw is the unit weight of water and ρw is the density of water
      • Density of water is 1000 kg/m3 or 62.4 lbm/ft3
      • Specific weight of water is 9810 N/m3, or equivalently, 9810 kg/(m2s2) or 62.4 lbf/ft3
  • Stress: Force per unit area
    • τ =
      lim
      ΔA→0
      ΔF
      ΔA
      , where ΔF is the force acting on infinitesimal area, ΔA
    • Stress can be divided into the normal and tangential components as follows:
      • τn = −P, where τn is the normal stress component and P is the pressure at which the normal stress component is desired
      • τt = μ
        dv
        dy
        , where τt is the tangential stress component, dv is the differential of the velocity, and dy is the differential of the distance in the direction normal to the boundary
  • Absolute DynamicViscosity: Resistance of a fluid to shearing flows
  • Kinematic Viscosity: Ratio of the dynamic viscosity to the density of the fluid
    • ν =
      μ
      ρ
      , where μ is the absolute dynamic viscosity
  • SurfaceTension: Force per unit contact length
    • σ =
      F
      L
      , where F is the surface force at the interface and L is the length of interface
  • Capillary Rise: Ability of a liquid to move through narrow spaces without the help of and against external forces such as gravity
    • Height of capillary rise is given by h =
      4σcosβ
      γd
      , where σ is the surface tension, β is the angle made by the liquid with a wet tube wall, and d is the diameter of the tube in capillary rise
  • Hydraulic Gradient: Also known as the grade line; an imaginary line above the pipe representing the pressure head at any point by the vertical distance between the pipe axis and the location of this line
  • Energy Line: Also known as the total head line; sum of the total head above a horizontal difference
    • The difference between the hydraulic gradient and the energy line is the velocity head
