  2. OBJECTIVES • At the end of this chapter, you should be able to: • Understand the basic concepts of fluid mechanics and recognize the various type of fluid flow problems encountered in practice.

  3. What is fluid mechanics? • The science that deals with the behavior of fluids at rest (fluid statics) or in motion (fluid dynamics), and the interaction of fluids with solids or other fluids at the boundaries. • It is divided into several categories: • Examples: hydrodynamics, hydraulics, Gas dynamics, aerodynamics etc.

  4. Hydrodynamics: The study of the motion of fluids that can be approximated as incompressible (such as liquids, especially water, and gases at low speeds). • Hydraulics: A subcategory of hydrodynamics, which deals with liquid flows in pipes and open channels. • Gas dynamics: Deals with the flow of fluids that undergo significant density changes, such as the flow of gases through nozzles at high speeds. • Aerodynamics: Deals with the flow of gases (especially air) over bodies such as aircraft, rockets, and automobiles at high or low speeds. • Meteorology, oceanography, and hydrology: Deal with naturally occurring flows.

  5. What is FLUID? • A substance in the liquid or gas phase is referred as FLUID • In fluids, stress is proportional to strain rate. • Stress=force per unit area. Normal stress, σ = Fn/dA (in fluid at rest, it is called pressure) Shear stress, τ = Ft/dA (for fluid at rest=0)

  6. Application areas of Fluid mechanics Examples: • Natural flows & weather • Aircraft & spacecraft • Boats • Human body • Piping & plumbing systems • Wind turbines • and many more…..

  12. NO-SLIP CONDITION • A fluid in motion comes to a complete stop at the surface and assumes a zero velocity relatives to the surface. • Fluid in direct contact with solid “sticks” to the surface due to viscous effect, and there is no slip.

  13. THE NO-SLIP CONDITION A fluid flowing over a stationary surface comes to a complete stop at the surface because of the no-slip condition. The development of a velocity profile due to the no-slip condition as a fluid flows over a blunt nose. Boundary layer: The flow region adjacent to the wall in which the viscous effects (and thus the velocity gradients) are significant. Flow separation during flow over a curved surface.

  14. Classification Of Fluid Flows A. Viscous vsinviscid regions of flow • Viscosity -a measure of internal stickiness of fluid • Viscous flow region–significant frictional effect • Inviscid flow region – negligible viscous forces The flow of an originally uniform fluid stream over a flat plate, and the regions of viscous flow (next to the plate on both sides) and inviscid flow (away from the plate).

  15. Classification Of Fluid Flows B. Internal vs external flow C. Compressible vsincompressible • Incompressible flow – almost constant density throughout - fluid • Compressible flow - gas D. Laminar vs turbulent flow • Determined by Reynolds number, Re • Re < 2000 (laminar); Re > 6000 (turbulent); between laminar and turbulent is transitional

  16. E. Natural (or unforced) vs forced flow F. Steady vs unsteady flow • Steady = no change at a point of time • Transient = typically used for developing flows,( e.g. pressure build up inside rocket engine, until it operates steadily)

  17. SYSTEM AND CONTROL VOLUME • System: A quantity of matter or a region in space chosen for study. • Surroundings: The mass or region outside the system • Boundary: The real or imaginary surface that separates the system from its surroundings. • The boundary of a system can be fixed or movable. • Systems may be considered to be closedor open. • Closed system (Control mass): A fixed amount of mass, and no mass can cross its boundary.

  18. Open system (control volume): A properly selected region in space. • It usually encloses a device that involves mass flow such as a compressor, turbine, or nozzle. • Both mass and energy can cross the boundary of a control volume. • Control surface: The boundaries of a control volume. It can be real or imaginary. An open system (a control volume) with one inlet and one exit.
