Q

Why is the viscosity of gases smaller than in liquid?

A

due to lower density, less molecular collisions, causes lower viscosity

Q

Why is the vicsoity off liquids descreasing with increasing temperature?

A

with the increase of temperature, one increase the average distance between molecules, which decrease the intermolecular attractive forces.
Addtionally, the increase of T, leads to increase of the kinetic energy of molecues, which causes frequency of place changes

Q

What is the basic low in static fluid?

28
Q

what is the general equation for the forces acting in x, y and z direction?

A

do you know it?

29
Q

Pressure in static fluids is describe as? (know the eqaution

A

in one dimension (in the z-direction)

30
Q

How does the following formual p(z)=p(o) + pgz results?

A

in a heavy fluid, one has a hydrostatic pressure distribution.
the density of the incompressibilie fluid is constant, leading to a coordinate system changed

31
Q

for what can the hydrostatic pressure can be used?

A

for U-tube as measuring instrument

32
Q

How is the pressures between two connected water columns?

A

the hydrostatic pressure is equal in all planes

33
Q

what is the formula for the equilibrium of forces in a U-tube?

A

p1=P2 +pgh

34
Q

if the pressure differences is to high, what can be done to still obtain a small U-tube?

A

at high differences, fluid with high density should be used and vice vicel

35
Q

what is the Archimdes’s principle?

A

A body of any shape immersed in a liquid experiences a weight reduction equal to the weight of the displaced liquid

36
Q

what is the buoyance force equation?

A

F(b)= m(water)*g

37
Q

what do you have to do if you want to know if your tablet will float or sink?

A

Do a force equilibrium, where the sum of the fg and fb equa zero.
if the tablet density is low, it will float, otherwise it will sink

38
Q

what does the kinematics describes?

A

it describe the movement of a fluid without considerung the forces that cause this movemnet

39
Q

what are the two approcaches used to decriebe the movements?

A

La grange and the euler

40
Q

the La Grange approach is?

A
  • obersever moves with fluid element
  • flow variables are each linked to one fluid element
  • temporal change of the fluid element properties
41
Q

the Euler approach is?

A

Stationary observer, decribes passing flow
Behavior of the constantly changing fluid particles, which pass the defined loctation
flo variables are each linked to several fluid elements

42
Q

what is the correlation between La grange and Euler approache?

A

material (La grangian) change of peroperties (derviation) of a fluid element expressed in Eulerian reference system

43
Q

what are the different lines?

A

Streamlines and Pathlines

44
Q

what are Stremlines?

A

it show at a certain time the directional filed of the velocity vector

45
Q

what is the methematical description of the streamlines?

A

tangents of velocity vectors (v*dx=0)

46
Q

what are Pathlines?

A

Path on which a fluid elemnt moves with advancing time

47
Q

what is the methematical description of the pathlines?

A

dx/dt=v(x,t) (like la grande)

48
Q

what happend for a steady flow?

A

the speed field is indepnedent of time, therefore streamlines is equal to the pathlines

49
Q

what is a stream filament theory?

A
  • a one dimensional stream, where the steamlines form a closed surface flow tube
50
Q

how are the velocity vectors in the stream filament theory?

A

streamlines are tangents

51

what are other characteritics of the stream filament theory?

A

change of flow variables small in d-direction in compaerison to chnage in s-direction

53
Q

change of flow variables small in d-direction in compaerison to chnage in s-direction (what does this means)

A

one diemnsional changes (s-direction) along stream line calculable

54
Q

Why is the stream filament theory interesting for industry?

A

Flows through pipes and in channels can be treated as a single stream filament using values of two variables averaged over the cross-section

55
Q

what is the continuity equation?

A

A1w1=A2w2–>V1=V2

56
Q

what is the Bernoulli equation?

A

Do you know it?

57
Q

When is the Bernoulli equation valid?

A

Stationary flows
incompressible media
frictionless fluid
no field forces other than gravity

58
Q

How can the Bernoulli equation be used to describe the nozzle for spray drying?

A

it is used to describe the pressure forces, where if the dynamic pressure increase, the static pressure has to decrease, for the pressure to be constant through out the drying process

59
Q

When does the dynamic pressure ncreases?

A

when something is flowing, the faster the liquid flows the lower the static pressure, therefore z1 nd z2 i the bernoulli equation are the same

60
Q

When do we used the hydrosataic, Bernoulli and continity equation?

A

contiunity equation for speed
Bernoulli equation for Pressure
hydrostatic for the High

61
Q

What are stirred tanks used for?

A

to reducs complex experiment in the lab, by simulation of stirred systems via numerical fluid dynamic

62

how do you determined P in a stirred specific diagram?

A

Calculation of Re-number
Reading the Ne-number from diagram
Calculation of P

63
Q

when is no baffles needed?

A

when the laminar flow infleunes of the viscosity forces is dominates

64
Q

When is Turbulent reached?

A

mostly only reached when baffles are used

65
Q

the transition are depends on?

A

reactor type, hwereby the bafffles reduce the transition area, leading to turbulent flow
