6. Property Balance Math + Mass balances CH EN 374: Fluid Mechanics
Review: Material Derivative How f changes for a fluid particle How f changes in each direction How a fluid particle moves through the field How the field itself changes with time
Overall Change for Control Volume • Take an extensive property B • Examples: mass, momentum, energy • Overall change inside control volume: • Affected by: • Change inside CV • Flow in and out Control Volume
Reynold’s Transport Theory (RTT) • How is this similar to the material derivative? • Gives a macroscopic or integral material balance Total change of property Change within the control volume. Flow in and out across the control surface. Control Volume Control Surface
Change of B inside control volume. • What will make this term change with time? • Density changing • Control volume changing shape or size
Flow in and out of control volume. • is a vector normal to the control surface at any point • is the velocity component normal to surface—that’s what goes in or out
vavg A • For each inlet and outlet: • For the total, add together inlets and outlets
Simplification • In this class we will only use RTT for: • Incompressible flows • Fixed control volumes • How does this simplify the equation? Control Volume Control Surface
What did I want you to get out of all that? • Be able to describe what each term in the RTT means • Know the assumptions that go into simple material balances • Now we turn this into balances for different properties. • Today: Mass • Monday: Momentum • Wednesday: Mechanical Energy
Conservation of Mass • Mass: • What’s B? • What’s b? • What’s dB/dt? • What’s ?
Problem • A desktop computer is to be cooled by a fan whose flow rate is 0.40 m3/min. Determine the mass flow rate of air through the fan at an elevation of 3400 m where the air density is 0.7 kg/m3.
Problem • A cylindrical water tank of radius whose top is open to the atmosphere is initially filled with water to a height of . A discharge plug near the bottom of the tank is pulled out and water begins to drain through a circular hole of diameter . • If we assume that energy losses through the hole at the bottom of the tank are negligible, the average velocity of the exiting water is given by , where is gravitational acceleration and is the height of water in the tank (this will be a function of time. This is called Toricelli’s Law and we will derive it ourselves next week. • Determine • If is 3 ft, is 4 ft, and is 0.5 in, how long will it take for the water level in the tank to drop to 2 ft?
