Introduction
In this chapter, we will study some typical fluid motions in an elementary
way that is
Considering fundamental laws that governs motion of fluid particles
Applying Newtons 2nd Law to Fluid particles
Obtain Bernoulli Equation and applying it to various flows
Understanding numerous assumptions applied to its derivatives
under various flow conditions
While doing analysis of a fluid flow, one must know the
restrictions on use of Bernoulli Eqn to get accurate or useful
results
This equation is said to the most used and most abused equation
in Fluid mechanics
Fluid Mechanics - I : Chapter 3
Fluid particle motion from one point to another can be expressed in term of its
acceleration and deceleration ( a )
As per Newtons 2nd Law these can be expressed in term its mass and net
forces applied, that is F = m a
In this Chapter, we will consider In-viscid, Adiabatic Flow, which means:
Zero Viscosity
No Thermal conductivity
Absence of Heat Transfer except possibility of Heat Transfer by Radiation
For establishing Net Force on the fluid particle, we assume that forces are due
to Pressure and Gravity only, (other forces are negligible)
Thus 2nd Law of Newton, becomes
( Net Pressure Forces + Net Gravity Forces )on particle
= Particle Mass x Particle Acceleration
The motion of particle or forces acting of it are strictly 3-D and unsteady
Three space coordinates and time are needed to describe motion of particle or
force acting on particle
Numerous coordinate systems are available, but the most commonly used are :
Rectangular Coordinates System; (x, y and z)
Cylindrical Coordinates System; ( r, and z)
In this chapter we will limit our study to 2-D flow only; (x, z plane)
Motion of a particle is generally quantified in term of Velocity vector and its
path is traced by Streamline
Velocity is defined as time rate change of the position of particle ; V=ds/dt
The path a particle follows during its motion is called Streamline
Velocity direction at any point on the path, is always tangential to Streamline at that
point
For a Steady Flow, velocity (or any other property) at any point do not change
with time and each particle follow same path (Streamline)
Refer fig 3.1 (b), it is sometime convenient to use streamline coordinates, i.e.
along streamline (s) and normal to streamline (n) coordinates
Thus vector a in s-n coordinates has components

If streamlines are parallel then an and as are zero as V/s=0 and R=infinity

To determine the Forces in s direction, a small Fluid particle is taken out from
the flow as shown below and Free Body diagram is drawn as below
The particle has volume; (vol)=s n y, where y is depth in normal to 2-D

Eqn. 3.4 can be rearranged in Total Derivatives (integrals) using the following
observations
Sin = dz/ds
;
from inspection of Fig 3.3
V dV/ds = d (V2) ;
from knowledge of Calculus
dn =0 along streamline; or dP = (P/s)ds+ (P/n)dn= (P/s)ds
Hence (P/s) = dP/ds
Putting the above facts in Eqn. 3.4 we get a useful eqn for motion along a streamline

Physical interpretation of above eqn. is that change in the direction of flow (i.e.
curved path having radius R) is accomplished by the combination of Pressure
Gradient ; (p/n) and particle weight normal to streamline; (Centrifugal Forces,
V2/R)
Also if the gravity is negligible (like gas flow) or flow is horizontal (z/n =0) then

Physical Interpretation
Recall that the following assumptions were made to derive these equations:
In Bernoulli Eqn. the Force; mass times acceleration involve three identities:

Eqn for Flow rate in the pipes, can be established using B.Eqn and
Cont. Eqn and applying these at station 1 & 2 and keeping the
following in mind

The actual flow rate will be smaller than this theoretical flow rate
