Ongoing Fluid Mechanics Billy Flashcards
what is incompressible?
liquid are incompressible and fluids are compressible
ρ ?
Density, ρ(r , t)
p ?
Pressure p(r , t)
ū ?
Fluid Density ū=ū(r, t)
Define a Streamline
An imaginary line in a flow which is everywhere tangential to the fluid density ū.
Imagine a freeze frame rather than following particle
1.1
Equations for streamlines
dx/u = dy/v = dz/w (=k)
Define a Stagnation point
places where the velocity is zero.
1.2
Equations for particle paths, with dr/dt = ū(r,t).
dx/dt=u
dy/dt=v
dz/dt=w
when is a flow steady ?
when ðu/ðt = 0
Define a streakline
imagine injecting dye into a flow at a specific location for all time.
Suffix Notation.
δ_pq ?
{ 1 if p=q
{ 0 if p≠q
Suffix Notation.
ε_pqr ?
{ +1 cyclic 123, 231, 312
{ -1 anticyclic 321, 213, 132
{ 0 otherwise
D/Dt ?
D/Dt = ð/ðt + u·ð/ðx + v·ð/ðy + w·ð/ðz
D/Dt = ð/ðt + ū·∇
Dρ/Dt ?
D/Dt = ðρ/ðt + ū·(∇ρ)
Dū/Dt ?
D/Dt = ðū/ðt + (ū·∇)ū
