# Introductory Concepts
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These are ideas you need to know about to know what's going on, I guess?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Control Volumes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A control volume is a volume with an imaginary boundry to make it easier to analyze the flow of a
|
||||||
|
fluid.
|
||||||
|
The boundry is drawn where the properties and conditions of the fluid is known, or where an
|
||||||
|
approximation can be made.
|
||||||
|
Properties which may be know include:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Velocity
|
||||||
|
- Pressure
|
||||||
|
- Temperature
|
||||||
|
- Viscosity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The region in the control volume is analyed in terms of enery and mass flows entering and leaving
|
||||||
|
the control volumes.
|
||||||
|
You don't have to understand what's going on inside the control volume.

### Example 1
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The thrust of a jet engine on an aircraft at rest can be analysed in terms of the changes in
|
||||||
|
momentum or the air passing through the engine.

||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The control volume is drawn far enough in front of the engine that the air velocity entering can
|
||||||
|
be assumed to be at atmospheric pressurce and its velocity negligible.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At the exit of the engine the boundary is drawn close where the velocity is known and the air
|
||||||
|
pressure atmospheric.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The control volume cuts the material attaching the engine to the aircraft and there will be a force
|
||||||
|
transmitted across the control volume there to oppose the forces on the engine created by thrust
|
||||||
|
and gravity.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The details of the flows inside the control volume do not need to be known as the thrust can be
|
||||||
|
determined in terms of forces and flows crossing the boundaries drawn.
|
||||||
|
However, to understand the flows inside the engine in more detail, a more detailed analysis would
|
||||||
|
be required.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Ideal Fluid
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The actual flow pattern in a fluid is usually complex and difficult to model but it can be
|
||||||
|
simplified by assuming the fluid is ideal.
|
||||||
|
The ideal fluid has the following properties:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Zero viscosity
|
||||||
|
- Incompressible
|
||||||
|
- Zero surface tension
|
||||||
|
- Does not change phases
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Gases and vapours are compressible so can only be analysed as ideal fluids when flow velocities are
|
||||||
|
low but they can often be treated as ideal (or perfect) gases, in which case the ideal gas equations
|
||||||
|
apply.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Steady Flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Steady flow is a flow which has *no changes in properties with respect to time*.
|
||||||
|
Properties may vary from place to place but in the same place the properties must not change in
|
||||||
|
the control volume to be steady flow.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Unsteady flow does change with respect to time.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Uniform Flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Uniform flow is when all properties are the same at all points at any given instant but can change
|
||||||
|
with respect to time, like the opposite of steady flow.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## One Dimensional Flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In one dimensional (1D) flow it is assumed that all properties are uniform over any plane
|
||||||
|
perpedenciular to the direction of flow (e.g. all points along the cross section of a pipe have
|
||||||
|
identical properties).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This means properties can only flow in one direction---usually the direction of flow.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1D flow is never achieved exactly in practice as when a fluid flows along a pipe, the velocity at
|
||||||
|
the wall is 0, and maximum in the centre of the pipe.
|
||||||
|
Despite this, assuming flow is 1D simplifies the analysis and often is accurate enough.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Flow Patterns
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are multiple ways to visualize flow patterns.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Streamlines
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A streamline is a line along which all the particle have, at a given instant, velocity vectors
|
||||||
|
which are tangential to the line.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Therefore there is no component of velocity of a streamline.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A particle can never cross a streamline and *streamlines never cross*.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
They can be constructed mathematically and are often shown as output from CFD analysis.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For a steady flow there are no changes with respect to time so the streamline pattern does not.
|
||||||
|
The pattern does change when in unsteady flow.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Streamlines in uniform flow must be straight and parallel.
|
||||||
|
They must be parallel as if they are not, then different points will have different directions and
|
||||||
|
therefore different velocities.
|
||||||
|
Same reasoning with if they are not parallel.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Pathlines
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A pathline shows the route taken by a single particle during a given time interval.
|
||||||
|
It is equivalent to a high exposure photograph which traces the moevement of the particle marked.
|
||||||
|
You could track pathlines with a drop of injected dye or inserting a buoyant solid particle which
|
||||||
|
has the same density as the solid.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Pathlines may cross.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Streaklines
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A streakline joins, at any given time, all particles that have passed through a given point.
|
||||||
|
Examples of this are line dye or a smoke stream which is produced from a continuous supply.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Viscous (Real) Fluids
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Viscosity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A fluid offers resisistance to motion due to its viscosity or internal friction.
|
||||||
|
The greater the resistance to flow, the greater the viscosity.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Higher viscosity also reduces the rate of shear deformation between layers for a given shear stress.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Viscosity comes from two effects:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- In liquids, the inter-molecular forces act as drag between layers of fluid moving at different
|
||||||
|
velocities
|
||||||
|
- In gases, the mixing of faster and slower moving fluid causes friction due to momentum transfer.
|
||||||
|
The slower layers tend to slow down the faster ones
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Newton's Law of Viscosity
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Viscosity can be defined in terms of rate of shear or velocity gradient.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
![](./images/vimscrot-2021-11-17T14:14:05,079195275+00:00.png)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Consider the flow in the pipe above.
|
||||||
|
Fluid in contact with the surface has a velocity of 0 because the surface irregularities trap the
|
||||||
|
fluid particles.
|
||||||
|
A short distance away from the surface the velocity is low but in the middle of the pipe the
|
||||||
|
velocity is $v_F$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Let the velocity at a distance $y$ be $v$ and at a distance $y + \delta y$ be $v + \delta v$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The ratio $\frac{\delta v}{\delta y}$ is the average velocity gradient over the distance
|
||||||
|
$\delta y$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
But as $\delta y$ tends to zero, $\frac{\delta v}{\delta y} \rightarrow$ the value of the
|
||||||
|
differential $\frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}y}$ at a point such as point A.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For most fluids in engineering it is found that the shear stress, $\tau$, is directly proportional
|
||||||
|
to the velocity gradient when straight and parallel flow is involved:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\tau = \mu\frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}y}$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Where $\mu$ is the constant of proportinality and known as the dynamic viscosity, or simply the
|
||||||
|
viscosity of the fluid.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is Newton's Law of Viscosity and fluids that ovey it are known as Newtonian fluids.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Viscosity and Lubrication
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Where a fluid is a thin film (such as in lubricating flows), the velocity gradient can be
|
||||||
|
approximated to be linear and an estimate of shear stress obtained:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\tau = \mu \frac{\delta v}{\delta y} \approx \mu \frac{v}{y}$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
From the shear stress we can calculate the force exerted by a film by the relationship:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\tau = \frac F A$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Fluid Flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Types of flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
There are essentially two types of flow:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Smooth (laminar) flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At low flow rates, particles of fluid are moving in straight lines and can be considered to be
|
||||||
|
moving in layers or laminae.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Rough (turbulent) flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
At higher flow rates, the paths of the individual fluid particles are not straight but disorderly
|
||||||
|
resulting in mixing taking place
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Between fully laminar and fully turbulent flows is a transition region.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## The Reynolds Number
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Development of the Reynolds Number
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In laminar flow the most influentialfactor is the magnitude of the viscous forces:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$viscous\, forces \propto \mu\frac v l l^2 = \mu vl$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where $v$ is a characteristic velocit and $l$ is a characteristic length.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In turbulent flow viscous effects are not significant but inertia effects (mixing, momentum
|
||||||
|
exchange, acceleration of fluid mass) are.
|
||||||
|
Interial forces can be represented by $F = ma$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\begin{align*}
|
||||||
|
m &\propto \rho l^3 \\
|
||||||
|
a &= \frac{dv}{dt} \\
|
||||||
|
&\therefore a \propto \frac v t \text{ and } t = \frac l v \\
|
||||||
|
&\therefore a \propto \frac {v^2} l \\
|
||||||
|
&\therefore \text{Interial forces} \propto \rho l^2\frac{v^2} l = \rho l^2v^2
|
||||||
|
\end{align*}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The ratio of internalforces to viscous forces is called the Reynolds number and is abbreviated to
|
||||||
|
Re:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\Rey = \frac{\text{interial forces}}{\text{viscous forces}} = \frac {\rho l^2v^2}{\mu vl} = \frac {\rho vl} \mu$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where $\rho$ and $\mu$ are fluid properties and $v$ and $l$ are characteristic velocity and length.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- During laminar flow, $\Rey$ is small as viscous forces dominate.
|
||||||
|
- During turbulent flow, $\Rey$ is large as intertial forces dominate.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\textRey is a non dimensional group.
|
||||||
|
It has no units because the units cancel out.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Non dimensional groups are very important in fluid mechancics and need to be considered when scaling
|
||||||
|
experiments.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If \textRey is the same in two different pipes, the flow will be the same regardless of actual
|
||||||
|
diameters, densities, or other properties.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### \textRey for a Circular Section Pipe
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The characteristic length for pipe flow is the diameter $d$ and the characteristic velocity is
|
||||||
|
mean flow in the pipe, $v$, so \textRey of a circular pipe section is given by:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\Rey = \frac{\rho vd} \mu$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For flow in a smooth circular pipe under normal engineering conditions the following can be assumed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- $\Rey < 2000$ --- laminar flow
|
||||||
|
- $2000 < \Rey < 4000$ --- transition
|
||||||
|
- $\Rey > 4000$ --- fully turbulent flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
These figures can be significantly affected by surface roughness so flow may be turbulent below
|
||||||
|
$\Rey = 4000$.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Euler's Equation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In a static fluid, pressure only depends on density and elevation.
|
||||||
|
In a moving fluid the pressure is also related to acceleration, viscosity, and shaft work done on or
|
||||||
|
by the fluid.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\frac 1 \rho \frac{\delta p}{\delta s} + g\frac{\delta z}{\delta s} + v\frac{\delta v}{\delta s} = 0$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Assumptions / Conditions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Euler euqation applies where the following can be assumed:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Steady flow
|
||||||
|
- The fluid is inviscid
|
||||||
|
- No shaft work
|
||||||
|
- Flow along a streamline
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Bernoulli's Equation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Euler's equation comes in differential form, which is difficult to apply.
|
||||||
|
We can integrate it to make it easier
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\begin{align*}
|
||||||
|
\frac 1 \rho \frac{\delta p}{\delta s} + g\frac{\delta z}{\delta s} + v\frac{\delta v}{\delta s} &= 0
|
||||||
|
& \text{(Euler's equation)} \\
|
||||||
|
\int\left\{\frac{\mathrm{d}p} \rho + g\mathrm{d}z + v\mathrm{d}v \right\} &= \int 0 \,\mathrm{d}s \\
|
||||||
|
\therefore \int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p + g\int \mathrm{d}z + \int v \,\mathrm{d}v &= \int 0 \,\mathrm{d}s \\
|
||||||
|
\therefore \int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} &= \text{constant}_1
|
||||||
|
\end{align*}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The first term of the equation can only be integrated if $\rho$ is constant as then:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p = \frac 1 \rho \int \mathrm{d}p = \frac p \rho$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
So, if density is constant:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\frac p \rho + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} = \text{constant}_2$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Assumptions / Conditions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All the assumptions from Euler's equation apply:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Steady flow
|
||||||
|
- The fluid is inviscid
|
||||||
|
- No shaft work
|
||||||
|
- Flow along a streamline
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
But also one more:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Incompressible flow
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Forms of Bernoulli's Equation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Energy Form
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This form of Bernoulli's Equation is known as the energy form as each component has the units
|
||||||
|
energy/unit mass:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\frac p \rho + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} = \text{constant}_2$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It is split into 3 parts:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Pressure energy ($\frac p \rho$) --- energy needed to move the flow against the pressure
|
||||||
|
(flow work)
|
||||||
|
- Potential energy ($gz$) --- elevation
|
||||||
|
- Kinetic energy ($\frac{v^2}{2}$) --- kinetic energy
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Elevation / Head Form
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Divide the energy form by $g$:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\frac\rho{\rho g} + z + \frac{v^2}{2g} = H_T$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where $H_T$ is constant and:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- $\frac{p}{\rho g}$ --- static/pressure haed
|
||||||
|
- $z$ --- elevation head
|
||||||
|
- $\frac{v_2}{2g}$ --- dynamic/velocity head
|
||||||
|
- $H_T$ --- total head
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Each term now has units of elevations
|
||||||
|
- In fluids the elevation is sometimes called head
|
||||||
|
- This form of the equation is also useful in some applications
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Pressure Form
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Multiply the energy form by $\rho$ to give the pressure form:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$p + \rho gz + \frac 1 2 \rho v^2 = \text{constant}$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
where:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- $p$ --- static pressure (often written as $p_s$)
|
||||||
|
- $\rho gz$ --- elevation pressure
|
||||||
|
- $\frac 1 2 \rho v^2$ --- dynamic pressure
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Density is constant
|
||||||
|
- Each term now has the units of pressure
|
||||||
|
- This form is useful is we are interested in pressures
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Comparing two forms of the Bernoulli Equation (Piezometric)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$$\text{piezometric} = \text{static} + \text{elevation}$$
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Pressure form:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\begin{align*}
|
||||||
|
p_s + \rho gz + \frac 1 2 \rho v^2 &= \text{total pressure} \\
|
||||||
|
p_s + \rho gz &= \text{piezometric pressure}
|
||||||
|
\end{align*}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Head form:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
\begin{align*}
|
||||||
|
\frac{p_s}{\rho g} + z + \frac{v^2}{2g} &= \text{total head} \\
|
||||||
|
\frac{p_s}{\rho g} + z &= \text{piezometric head}
|
||||||
|
\end{align*}

# Fluid Dynamics
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Introductory Concepts
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
These are ideas you need to know about to know what's going on, I guess?
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Control Volumes
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A control volume is a volume with an imaginary boundry to make it easier to analyze the flow of a
|
|
||||||
fluid.
|
|
||||||
The boundry is drawn where the properties and conditions of the fluid is known, or where an
|
|
||||||
approximation can be made.
|
|
||||||
Properties which may be know include:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Velocity
|
|
||||||
- Pressure
|
|
||||||
- Temperature
|
|
||||||
- Viscosity
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The region in the control volume is analyed in terms of enery and mass flows entering and leaving
|
|
||||||
the control volumes.
|
|
||||||
You don't have to understand what's going on inside the control volume.

#### Example 1
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The thrust of a jet engine on an aircraft at rest can be analysed in terms of the changes in
|
|
||||||
momentum or the air passing through the engine.

||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The control volume is drawn far enough in front of the engine that the air velocity entering can
|
|
||||||
be assumed to be at atmospheric pressurce and its velocity negligible.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
At the exit of the engine the boundary is drawn close where the velocity is known and the air
|
|
||||||
pressure atmospheric.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The control volume cuts the material attaching the engine to the aircraft and there will be a force
|
|
||||||
transmitted across the control volume there to oppose the forces on the engine created by thrust
|
|
||||||
and gravity.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The details of the flows inside the control volume do not need to be known as the thrust can be
|
|
||||||
determined in terms of forces and flows crossing the boundaries drawn.
|
|
||||||
However, to understand the flows inside the engine in more detail, a more detailed analysis would
|
|
||||||
be required.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Ideal Fluid
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The actual flow pattern in a fluid is usually complex and difficult to model but it can be
|
|
||||||
simplified by assuming the fluid is ideal.
|
|
||||||
The ideal fluid has the following properties:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Zero viscosity
|
|
||||||
- Incompressible
|
|
||||||
- Zero surface tension
|
|
||||||
- Does not change phases
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Gases and vapours are compressible so can only be analysed as ideal fluids when flow velocities are
|
|
||||||
low but they can often be treated as ideal (or perfect) gases, in which case the ideal gas equations
|
|
||||||
apply.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Steady Flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Steady flow is a flow which has *no changes in properties with respect to time*.
|
|
||||||
Properties may vary from place to place but in the same place the properties must not change in
|
|
||||||
the control volume to be steady flow.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Unsteady flow does change with respect to time.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Uniform Flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Uniform flow is when all properties are the same at all points at any given instant but can change
|
|
||||||
with respect to time, like the opposite of steady flow.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### One Dimensional Flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In one dimensional (1D) flow it is assumed that all properties are uniform over any plane
|
|
||||||
perpedenciular to the direction of flow (e.g. all points along the cross section of a pipe have
|
|
||||||
identical properties).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This means properties can only flow in one direction---usually the direction of flow.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1D flow is never achieved exactly in practice as when a fluid flows along a pipe, the velocity at
|
|
||||||
the wall is 0, and maximum in the centre of the pipe.
|
|
||||||
Despite this, assuming flow is 1D simplifies the analysis and often is accurate enough.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Flow Patterns
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are multiple ways to visualize flow patterns.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Streamlines
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A streamline is a line along which all the particle have, at a given instant, velocity vectors
|
|
||||||
which are tangential to the line.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Therefore there is no component of velocity of a streamline.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A particle can never cross a streamline and *streamlines never cross*.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
They can be constructed mathematically and are often shown as output from CFD analysis.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For a steady flow there are no changes with respect to time so the streamline pattern does not.
|
|
||||||
The pattern does change when in unsteady flow.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Streamlines in uniform flow must be straight and parallel.
|
|
||||||
They must be parallel as if they are not, then different points will have different directions and
|
|
||||||
therefore different velocities.
|
|
||||||
Same reasoning with if they are not parallel.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Pathlines
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A pathline shows the route taken by a single particle during a given time interval.
|
|
||||||
It is equivalent to a high exposure photograph which traces the moevement of the particle marked.
|
|
||||||
You could track pathlines with a drop of injected dye or inserting a buoyant solid particle which
|
|
||||||
has the same density as the solid.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Pathlines may cross.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Streaklines
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A streakline joins, at any given time, all particles that have passed through a given point.
|
|
||||||
Examples of this are line dye or a smoke stream which is produced from a continuous supply.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Viscous (Real) Fluids
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Viscosity
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
A fluid offers resisistance to motion due to its viscosity or internal friction.
|
|
||||||
The greater the resistance to flow, the greater the viscosity.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Higher viscosity also reduces the rate of shear deformation between layers for a given shear stress.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Viscosity comes from two effects:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- In liquids, the inter-molecular forces act as drag between layers of fluid moving at different
|
|
||||||
velocities
|
|
||||||
- In gases, the mixing of faster and slower moving fluid causes friction due to momentum transfer.
|
|
||||||
The slower layers tend to slow down the faster ones
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Newton's Law of Viscosity
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Viscosity can be defined in terms of rate of shear or velocity gradient.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
![](./images/vimscrot-2021-11-17T14:14:05,079195275+00:00.png)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Consider the flow in the pipe above.
|
|
||||||
Fluid in contact with the surface has a velocity of 0 because the surface irregularities trap the
|
|
||||||
fluid particles.
|
|
||||||
A short distance away from the surface the velocity is low but in the middle of the pipe the
|
|
||||||
velocity is $v_F$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Let the velocity at a distance $y$ be $v$ and at a distance $y + \delta y$ be $v + \delta v$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The ratio $\frac{\delta v}{\delta y}$ is the average velocity gradient over the distance
|
|
||||||
$\delta y$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But as $\delta y$ tends to zero, $\frac{\delta v}{\delta y} \rightarrow$ the value of the
|
|
||||||
differential $\frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}y}$ at a point such as point A.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For most fluids in engineering it is found that the shear stress, $\tau$, is directly proportional
|
|
||||||
to the velocity gradient when straight and parallel flow is involved:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\tau = \mu\frac{\mathrm{d}v}{\mathrm{d}y}$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Where $\mu$ is the constant of proportinality and known as the dynamic viscosity, or simply the
|
|
||||||
viscosity of the fluid.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This is Newton's Law of Viscosity and fluids that ovey it are known as Newtonian fluids.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Viscosity and Lubrication
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Where a fluid is a thin film (such as in lubricating flows), the velocity gradient can be
|
|
||||||
approximated to be linear and an estimate of shear stress obtained:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\tau = \mu \frac{\delta v}{\delta y} \approx \mu \frac{v}{y}$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
From the shear stress we can calculate the force exerted by a film by the relationship:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\tau = \frac F A$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Fluid Flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Types of flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There are essentially two types of flow:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Smooth (laminar) flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
At low flow rates, particles of fluid are moving in straight lines and can be considered to be
|
|
||||||
moving in layers or laminae.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Rough (turbulent) flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
At higher flow rates, the paths of the individual fluid particles are not straight but disorderly
|
|
||||||
resulting in mixing taking place
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Between fully laminar and fully turbulent flows is a transition region.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### The Reynolds Number
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Development of the Reynolds Number
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In laminar flow the most influentialfactor is the magnitude of the viscous forces:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$viscous\, forces \propto \mu\frac v l l^2 = \mu vl$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
where $v$ is a characteristic velocit and $l$ is a characteristic length.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In turbulent flow viscous effects are not significant but inertia effects (mixing, momentum
|
|
||||||
exchange, acceleration of fluid mass) are.
|
|
||||||
Interial forces can be represented by $F = ma$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\begin{align*}
|
|
||||||
m &\propto \rho l^3 \\
|
|
||||||
a &= \frac{dv}{dt} \\
|
|
||||||
&\therefore a \propto \frac v t \text{ and } t = \frac l v \\
|
|
||||||
&\therefore a \propto \frac {v^2} l \\
|
|
||||||
&\therefore \text{Interial forces} \propto \rho l^2\frac{v^2} l = \rho l^2v^2
|
|
||||||
\end{align*}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The ratio of internalforces to viscous forces is called the Reynolds number and is abbreviated to
|
|
||||||
Re:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\Rey = \frac{\text{interial forces}}{\text{viscous forces}} = \frac {\rho l^2v^2}{\mu vl} = \frac {\rho vl} \mu$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
where $\rho$ and $\mu$ are fluid properties and $v$ and $l$ are characteristic velocity and length.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- During laminar flow, $\Rey$ is small as viscous forces dominate.
|
|
||||||
- During turbulent flow, $\Rey$ is large as intertial forces dominate.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\textRey is a non dimensional group.
|
|
||||||
It has no units because the units cancel out.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Non dimensional groups are very important in fluid mechancics and need to be considered when scaling
|
|
||||||
experiments.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If \textRey is the same in two different pipes, the flow will be the same regardless of actual
|
|
||||||
diameters, densities, or other properties.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
##### \textRey for a Circular Section Pipe
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The characteristic length for pipe flow is the diameter $d$ and the characteristic velocity is
|
|
||||||
mean flow in the pipe, $v$, so \textRey of a circular pipe section is given by:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\Rey = \frac{\rho vd} \mu$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For flow in a smooth circular pipe under normal engineering conditions the following can be assumed:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- $\Rey < 2000$ --- laminar flow
|
|
||||||
- $2000 < \Rey < 4000$ --- transition
|
|
||||||
- $\Rey > 4000$ --- fully turbulent flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
These figures can be significantly affected by surface roughness so flow may be turbulent below
|
|
||||||
$\Rey = 4000$.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Euler's Equation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In a static fluid, pressure only depends on density and elevation.
|
|
||||||
In a moving fluid the pressure is also related to acceleration, viscosity, and shaft work done on or
|
|
||||||
by the fluid.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\frac 1 \rho \frac{\delta p}{\delta s} + g\frac{\delta z}{\delta s} + v\frac{\delta v}{\delta s} = 0$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Assumptions / Conditions
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Euler euqation applies where the following can be assumed:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Steady flow
|
|
||||||
- The fluid is inviscid
|
|
||||||
- No shaft work
|
|
||||||
- Flow along a streamline
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Bernoulli's Equation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Euler's equation comes in differential form, which is difficult to apply.
|
|
||||||
We can integrate it to make it easier
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\begin{align*}
|
|
||||||
\frac 1 \rho \frac{\delta p}{\delta s} + g\frac{\delta z}{\delta s} + v\frac{\delta v}{\delta s} &= 0
|
|
||||||
& \text{(Euler's equation)} \\
|
|
||||||
\int\left\{\frac{\mathrm{d}p} \rho + g\mathrm{d}z + v\mathrm{d}v \right\} &= \int 0 \,\mathrm{d}s \\
|
|
||||||
\therefore \int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p + g\int \mathrm{d}z + \int v \,\mathrm{d}v &= \int 0 \,\mathrm{d}s \\
|
|
||||||
\therefore \int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} &= \text{constant}_1
|
|
||||||
\end{align*}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The first term of the equation can only be integrated if $\rho$ is constant as then:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\int \frac 1 \rho \,\mathrm{d}p = \frac 1 \rho \int \mathrm{d}p = \frac p \rho$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
So, if density is constant:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\frac p \rho + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} = \text{constant}_2$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Assumptions / Conditions
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All the assumptions from Euler's equation apply:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Steady flow
|
|
||||||
- The fluid is inviscid
|
|
||||||
- No shaft work
|
|
||||||
- Flow along a streamline
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
But also one more:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Incompressible flow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Forms of Bernoulli's Equation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Energy Form
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This form of Bernoulli's Equation is known as the energy form as each component has the units
|
|
||||||
energy/unit mass:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\frac p \rho + gz + \frac{v^2}{2} = \text{constant}_2$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It is split into 3 parts:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Pressure energy ($\frac p \rho$) --- energy needed to move the flow against the pressure
|
|
||||||
(flow work)
|
|
||||||
- Potential energy ($gz$) --- elevation
|
|
||||||
- Kinetic energy ($\frac{v^2}{2}$) --- kinetic energy
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Elevation / Head Form
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Divide the energy form by $g$:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\frac\rho{\rho g} + z + \frac{v^2}{2g} = H_T$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
where $H_T$ is constant and:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- $\frac{p}{\rho g}$ --- static/pressure haed
|
|
||||||
- $z$ --- elevation head
|
|
||||||
- $\frac{v_2}{2g}$ --- dynamic/velocity head
|
|
||||||
- $H_T$ --- total head
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Each term now has units of elevations
|
|
||||||
- In fluids the elevation is sometimes called head
|
|
||||||
- This form of the equation is also useful in some applications
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Pressure Form
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Multiply the energy form by $\rho$ to give the pressure form:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$p + \rho gz + \frac 1 2 \rho v^2 = \text{constant}$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
where:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- $p$ --- static pressure (often written as $p_s$)
|
|
||||||
- $\rho gz$ --- elevation pressure
|
|
||||||
- $\frac 1 2 \rho v^2$ --- dynamic pressure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Density is constant
|
|
||||||
- Each term now has the units of pressure
|
|
||||||
- This form is useful is we are interested in pressures
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
#### Comparing two forms of the Bernoulli Equation (Piezometric)
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
$$\text{piezometric} = \text{static} + \text{elevation}$$
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Pressure form:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\begin{align*}
|
|
||||||
p_s + \rho gz + \frac 1 2 \rho v^2 &= \text{total pressure} \\
|
|
||||||
p_s + \rho gz &= \text{piezometric pressure}
|
|
||||||
\end{align*}
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Head form:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
\begin{align*}
|
|
||||||
\frac{p_s}{\rho g} + z + \frac{v^2}{2g} &= \text{total head} \\
|
|
||||||
\frac{p_s}{\rho g} + z &= \text{piezometric head}
|
|
||||||
\end{align*}
