Flowing fluids • Static versus flowing fluid • Objectives of the part of course • Basic concepts and definitions
Types of flow • Steady versus unsteady • Uniform versus no uniform • 1-D versus multi-D • Laminar versus turbulent
Development of flow pattern • Why not solve problem? • Flow visualization analog and experimental methods • Streamlines, streaklines and pathlines
Volume flow rate, Q • Q = ΔV/ Δt = dV/dt • Calculating Q if velocity is constant • Q=∫ v.dA • Mass flow rate

Material derivative and Acceleration • Total acceleration • Local acceleration • Convective acceleration
Example (p 4-26) Determine local, convective and total accelaration at x=0.5L and t= 3 s
Derivation of Euler’s equation Consider a cylindrical fluid element being accelerated in direction l and neglect viscous effects Use equilibrium equation Σ F = m a
Let’s take l along a stream line call s (i.e. flow along a streamline) But Therefore
Assume steady flow and drop subscript But last term is Substituting back, dividing by γ (assuing incompressible fluid) and integrating wrt s we get
Bernoulli equation One form of BE is Note assumptions made No losses Flow along streamline Steady flow incompressible
