Fluid mechanics Flashcards
What are ideal fluids
Incompressible
Free of internal friction (not viscous)
What does Bernoulli’s theorem apply to?
Ideal fluids in stationary and irrotational motion
When is the flow rate constant?
When the fluid is incompressible and the glass of the conduit are rigid
What is stationary motion?
The speed at the level of a section which is constant in all points of a section
What is irrotational motion?
Free of vortexes
No sharp-angled elbows and abrupt section changes in the duct
Is internal friction negligible in real liquid?
No they aren’t, they are present and not negligible
Are real liquids smooth?
No, they display a degree of viscosity
Is the kinetic energy theorem valid and applicable to the motion of real liquid?
No because non-conservative forces come into play
What do fluids consist of?
Liquids and gases
What are fluids?
Continuous and deformable bodies with uniform density
Are liquids compressible?
No not very
Where are forces between molecules higher, liquids or gas?
Liquids
Formula for pressure
p=F/S
Unit for pressure
N/m^2
What is the flowrate?
Volume of a fluid that passes through a section of the duct in the unit of time
What is the flowrate measured in?
m^3/s
Formula for flowrate
Q=V/t=S*v
2 types of fluid
Ideal fluids
Real fluids
What are real fluids?
Forces with frictional forces present (viscous)
What does it mean if ideal fluids are in steady motion?
Speed is constant in every point of the action of the duct
What is Leonardo’s law?
S1v1=S2v2
What is the velocity along the walls in laminar flow?
0
What is the velocity along the axis in laminar flow?
Maximum
What does the equation for flowrate in real liquids look like?
Q=Svm
vm= average velocity (1/2vmax)
What happens to the molecules in a fluid at rest?
They are in constant motion
What does Pascal’s principle state?
A pressure exerted in one point of an incompressible fluid is transmitted unaltered to every point of the liquid
What does the pressure inside a fluid depend on?
The distance from the surface
The pressure at the bottom will be higher
What does Stevin’s law state?
p=rohhg+p0
p=pressure
Fw=?
mg=rohVg=rohShg
Fw= force weight
Density of water
1*10^3 kg/m^3
What does Archimedes’ principle state?
A body immersed in a fluid is subjected to an upward force of an intensity equal to the weight of the displaced fluid volume
What is the thrust of Archimedes?
Upward force exerted by the surface doesn’t depend on what occupies the volume (body or liquid)
Formula for force acting on a immersed body according to archimedes principle
Farch=^ps=Vg*roh(liq)
What does whether a body floats or sinks depend on?
Density
Farch?Fw
roh(bod)?roh(liq)
When body floats
Farch>Fw
roh(bod)<roh(liq)
Farch?Fw
roh(bod)?roh(liq)
When body stays in the middle
Farch=Fw
roh(bod)=roh(liq)
Farch?Fw
roh(bod)?roh(liq)
When body sinks
Farch<Fw
roh(bod)>roh(liq)
What does if a body rotates or not depend on?
The centre of thrust and center of gravity
What does Bernoulli’s theorem represent?
The extension to fluid of the principle of conservation of energy
What does Bernoulli’s theorem allow us to interpret?
Important aspects of blood circulation in large blood vessels
When does Bernoulli’s theorem apply?
In stationary and irrotational motion
What is stationary motion?
Speed at the level of a section is constant in all the points of the section
What is irrotational motion free of?
Vortexes
What are the two forces acting on a liquid during motion?
Force of gravity
Pressure forces
If fluid I real then friction, if fluid is ideal then no friction
What is the work done by the forces acting on the masses of fluid equal to?
The change of kinetic energy (kinetic energy theorem)
Is the mass in ideal fluids variable?
No because they are incompressible
What is Bernoullis’ equation?
Constan=h+p/(roh*g)+v^2/(2g)
Wtot=^Ec
Bernoullis’
h1+p1/(rohg)+v1^2/2g=h2+p2/(rohg)+v2^2/2g
What is stenosis?
When vessels shrinks
What is an aneurysm?
When vessels increase
