Learning Outcomes
At the end of this chapter students will be
able to:
differentiate the unit and dimensions use
in engineering fluids (CO1)
understand various properties of fluids
(CO1)
What is a fluid?
A liquid takes the shape of
the container it is in and
forms a free surface in the
presence of gravity
A gas expands until it
encounters the walls of the
container and fills the entire
available space. Gases
cannot form a free surface
Gas and vapor are often
used as synonymous
words

What is a fluid?
A fluid is a substance in the gaseous or liquid
form
Distinction between solid and fluid?
Solid: can resist an applied shear by deforming.
Stress is proportional to strain
Fluid: deforms continuously under applied shear.
Stress is proportional to strain rate

What is a fluid?
Stress is defined as the
force per unit area.
Normal component:
normal stress
In a fluid at rest, the
normal stress is called
pressure
Tangential component:
shear stress
No-slip condition
No-slip condition: A fluid in
direct contact with a solid
``sticks' to the surface due to
viscous effects
Responsible for generation of
wall shear stress t
w, surface
drag D= t
w dA, and the
development of the boundary
layer
The fluid property responsible
for the no-slip condition is
viscosity
Important boundary condition
in formulating initial boundary
value problem (IBVP) for
analytical and computational
fluid dynamics analysis

Isaac Newton-England(1643-1727)
His key contributions to fluid mechanics include:
The second law: F=m.a.
The concept of Newtonian viscosity in which
stress and the rate of strain vary linearly.
The reciprocity principle
Relationship between the speed of waves at a
liquid surface and the wavelength.

Classification of Flows
We classify flows as a tool in making simplifying
assumptions to the governing partial-differential
equations, which are known as the NavierStokes equations
