Finals Unit 5 Flashcards
It identifies the quantity of the fluid that passes through any pipe, channel, or space using appropriate measurement devices.
Flow Measurement
The given quantity of a substance either in terms of mass or volume that passes through a pipe per unit time.
Flow
This is commonly referred to as a flowmeter or defined as an instrument used to measure flow rate of a fluid per unit time.
Flow Measurement Device
Is considered to be the relative motion of a set of concentric cylinders of fluid.
Laminar Flow
It is characterized as the irregular movement of fluid particles with no observable pattern and no definite layers.
Turbulent flow
It is the distance traveled by a fluid per time unit. It is also known as.
Flow Velocity/ macroscopic velocity
It is the entire length of the flow velocity.
Flow Speed
It is the vector field that provides the velocity of fluids at a certain time and position.
Flow Velocity in Fluids
It is the mass of the liquid substance passing per unit time, or simply the movement of mass per unit time.
Mass Flow
It refers to the volume of fluid which passes per unit time also known as:
Volumetric Flow Rate/Discharge
