Summary of Chapter 4 Equations
Basic Fluid Flow Equations Book Bernoulli “Momentum Equation” is actually the Energy Equation for incompressible fluid flow (as derived in class)
Isentropic (Adiabatic, Reversible) Processes
Isentropic Flow
Viscous Flow (Relevant to Boundary Layers)
Turbulent, Incompressible Boundary Layer
Viscous Effects Laminar Boundary Layer Drag
Viscous Effects Turbulent Boundary Layer Drag Whenever a Boundary Layer encounters an adverse pressure gradient (pressure increasing with distance), it can readily separate from the surface causing decrease in lift, increase in drag, leading to stall (discussed in detail in Chaper 5)
