Fluid Note 2 Sem 2

The document discusses the fundamentals of fluid flow, emphasizing the energy required for fluid motion, expressed in terms of head. It covers potential energy, kinetic energy, and pressure energy, leading to the formulation of Bernoulli's equation, which relates these energies in a flowing fluid. Examples are provided to illustrate the application of these concepts in fluid mechanics.

FLUID MECHANICS II
FUNDAMENTALS OF FLUID FLOW
• For a fluid to flow (move), it must posses an amount of
energy enough to cause its motion.
• Unit of energy is Joule (J)

• In fluid mechanics, energy is most often expressed in Head

• Definition 𝐻𝑒𝑎𝑑 = 𝑤𝑒𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡
• Unit of Head is meter (m)

Example

• Water is flowing through a tapering pipe having


diameter of 150mm and 50mm respectively. Find
the discharge at the large end and the velocity
head at the smaller end, if the velocity of the
water at the large end is 2.5 m/s.

Example
• A 100-mm-diameter suction pipe leading to a pump as
shown in fig below carries a discharge of 0.03 m3/s of oil
(sg = 0.85). if the pressure at point A in the suction pipe
is a vacuum of 180 mmHg, find the total energy head at
point A with respect to a datum at the pump.

1.2 Bernoulli’s Equation

• 1.2.1 Bernoulli’s Equation – Proof


• Consider an incompressible inviscid liquid flow
through a nonuniform pipe as shown in fig. 1
below.

Let sections 1-1 and 2-2 represent the pipe.
Assuming the pipe is running full so that there is
continuity.

Let p1 = pressure at 1-1


V1 = velocity at 2-2
A1 = cross-sectional area of pipe at 1-1
Z1 = elevation from datum as shown

And let p2, V2, A2 and Z2 represent the


corresponding parameters at 2-2. 8
