SCALARS Need a single number to represent them: P, T, ρ besttofind.com Temperature May vary in any dimension x, y, z, t www.physicalgeography.net/fundamentals/7d.html
VECTORS Have length and direction Need three numbers to represent them: http://www.xcrysden.org/doc/vectorField.html
VECTORS In terms of the unit vector:
CONCEPTS RELATED TO VECTORS Nabla operator: Denotes spatial variability Dot Product:
CONCEPTS RELATED TO VECTORS CrossProduct:
INDICIAL or TENSOR NOTATION Matrix Vector Vector Dot Product or First Order Tensor or Second Order Tensor
INDICIAL or TENSOR NOTATION Gradient of Scalar Gradient of Vector Special operator – Kronecker Delta Second Order Tensor
TENSORS Need nine numbers to represent them:
For a fluid at rest: Normal (perpendicular) forces caused by pressure
Fluids Deform more easily than solids Have no preferred shape
Deformation, or motion, is produced by a shear stress z u x μ= molecular dynamic viscosity [Pa·s = kg/(m·s)]
Continuum Approximation Even though matter is made of discrete particles, we can assume that matter is distributed continuously. This is because distance between molecules << scales of variation ψ(any property) varies continuously as a function of space and time space and time are the independent variables In the Continuum description, need to allow for relevant molecular processes – Diffusive Fluxes
Diffusive Fluxes z t = 0 e.g. Fourier Heat Conduction law: x Continuum representation of molecular interactions This is for a scalar (heat flux – a vector itself) but it also applies to a vector (momentum flux) t = 1 t = 2
Diffusive Fluxes (of momentum) Shear stress is proportional to the rate of shear normal to which the stress is exerted at molecular scales µ is the molecular dynamic viscosity = 10-3 kg m-1 s-1 for water is a property of the fluid Shear stress has units of kg m-1 s-1 m s-1 m-1 = kg m-1 s-2 or force per unit area or pressure: kg m s-2 m-2 = kg m-1 s-2
Diffusive Fluxes (of momentum) For a vector (momentum), the diffusion law can be written as (for an incompressible fluid): Shear stress linearly proportional to strain rate – Newtonian Fluid (viscosity is constant)
Boundary Conditions z u Zero Flux x No-Slip [u (z = 0) = 0]
Hydrostatics - The Hydrostatic Equation g z p + (∂p/∂z ) dz z = z0 + dz dz z = z0 p Integrating in z: A
Example – Application of the Hydrostatic Equation - 1 Find h z AC Downward Force? Weight of the cylinder = W Upward Force? h Pressure on the cylinder = F H Pressure on the cylinder = F = W Same result as with Archimedes’ principle (volume displaced = hAc) so the buoyant force is the same as F
Example – Application of the Hydrostatic Equation - 2 Find force on bottom and sides of tank z On bottom? AT = L W x W On vertical sides? dFx Integrating over depth (bottom to surface) D L Same force on the other side
