1
Fluids in Motion Includes equation of continuity (mass flow rate) and Bernoulli’s equation
2
Fluids in Motion: ideas for an “ideal fluid”
Nonviscous: no friction between adjacent layers Incompressible: density is constant Motion is steady: velocity, density, pressure at a given point don’t change Moves without turbulence
3
Fluids in Motion: “continuity”
Equation of continuity A1v1 = A2v2 where A = cross-sectional area and v = fluid velocity. This just means that the amount of fluid moving in any “section of pipe” must remain constant. Av = volumetric flow = m3/sec
4
Fluid Continuity
5
Fluids in motion: Bernoulli’s equation
As a fluid moves along if it changes speed or elevation then the pressure changes and vice versa. Bernoulli’s equation is really just conservation of energy for the fluid
6
Fluids in motion Bernoulli’s equation. P + ½ ρv2 + ρgh = constant
Bernoulli’s equation shows that as the velocity of a fluid speeds up it’s pressure goes down…..this idea used in airplane wings and frisbees (difference in pressure leads to upward force we call Lift)
7
Bernoulli’s Equation Faster moving air = less pressure on top
8
Bernoulllie’s Equation
Using Bernoulli’s
9
Burnoooi’s Principle Toricelli’s Theorem
