PHYS16 – Lecture 33 Fluids: Bernoulli’s Principle On a windy day in 1735, a new wig gives Bernoulli an idea.
Fluids pre-question • You are watering some flowers with a garden hose. You want to water some flowers in the very back of the garden. Assume that the flowers you want to water are at the same level as the hose. What do you have to do to the opening of the hose to increase the range by 4? A) Decrease the area by a factor of 16 B) Decrease the area by a factor of 4 C) Decrease the area by a factor of 2 D) Increase the area by a factor of 2 E) Increase the area by a factor of 4
Outline for Fluids • Fluid Statics • Pressure and Pascal’s Principle • Buoyant Force and Archimedes’ Principle • Fluid Dynamics • Ideal Fluids • Equation of Continuity • Bernoulli’s Equation
Buoyant Force and anchors… • If I have a boat in a pond and I toss out an anchor what happens to the water level in the pond?
Ideal Fluids • Incompressible – density is a constant • Nonviscous – ignore frictional effects • Irrotational – doesn’t rotate • Laminar – no acceleration Streamlines represent fluid flow
Ideal Fluids • Mass is conserved • Energy is conserved • Momentum is conserved • Continuum hypothesis is true – properties defined at infinitesimal points (density, pressure, temperature, etc.)
Which fluids are ideal? • Water – can be turbulent (waterfall not ideal, ideal in a slow moving river) • Air – compressible (piston not ideal, ideal in a laminar wind) • Honey – viscous fluid such that drag forces can’t be neglected (Not usually ideal) • Blood – pulsatile flow, filled with proteins/cells (ideal in large arteries or veins, not capillaries) • Water • Air • Honey • Blood
Poiseuille's Law • When frictional forces dominate velocity decreases • Viscous fluids • Small Diameters Ideal – larger diameters With Friction – small diameters
Equation of Continuity • For an ideal fluid flowing in a pipe, the volume flow rate through the pipe is constant Narrower section Larger speed Wider section Smaller speed
Example: Water out of faucet • Why does the stream of water flowing from a faucet often get more narrow as the water falls? Gravity accelerates water so velocity increases. If velocity goes up, then area goes down… http://thegoldenspiral.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/faucet_waterglass.jpg
Example: Arterial branching • An artery branches into two smaller arteries, each with half the diameter of the first. What is the velocity in the smaller artery compared to the larger artery? • Half • Same • Twice • Four times http://cardiovascres.oxfordjournals.org/content/65/3/619/F4.small.gif
Bernoulli’s Equation • For an ideal fluid flowing in a pipe, pressure in the pipe is related to the velocity and height of fluid
Discussion: Two sheets in the wind? • What happens if I take two sheets of paper, separate them by 1” and blow between them? A) sheets will move apart B) sheets will come together C) sheets will stay at same spots http://www.practicalphysics.org/imageLibrary/jpeg273/735.jpg
Main Points • Buoyant force • Ideal fluid is incompressible, laminar, nonviscous, and irrotational • Equation of continuity • Bernoulli’s Equation
