DMT 11 - 20 Flashcards
What are the 6 limitations of BE?
4 - 6
Ignoring Heat Transfer
Flow along a streamline
No shaft work
Describe the limitations of: Steady Flow?
Can not be used during the transient start-up and shut-down periods, or during periods of change in the flow condition
Describe the limitations of: Frictionless Flow?
Frictional effects are negligible for short flow sections with large cross sections, especially at low flow velocities
Describe the limitations of: Incompressible Flow?
Can not be used when the density of it is changing
Describe the limitations of: Ignoring Heat Transfer?
Since the density of a gas is inversely proportional to temperature
Describe the limitations of: Flow along a streamline?
Ignoring any vorticities
Describe the limitations of: No shaft work?
BE is not applicable in a flow section that involves a pump, turbine, fan, or any other machine or impeller since such devices destroy the streamline
In reality, what are the assumptions on friction?
2
Shear stress in fluid and with pipe
Sheer stress work against flow
What is BE if we take friction into consideration?
𝑃_1+(𝜌〖𝑣_1〗^2)/2+𝜌𝑔𝑧_1=
𝑃_2+(𝜌〖𝑣_2〗^2)/2+𝑝𝑔𝑧_2+∆𝑃
What is ∆𝑃 representing?
Pressure Drop
