Review Question (1 COMPRESSIBLE FLOW - FUNDAMENTALS SS 4.4. INTRODUCTION [A fluids defined as a substance which continuously deforms und the action of shearing forces. Liquids and gases are termed as fluids. “The study of finids at rest is known as fluid staties. The study of fluids in motion where pressure forces are Mm considered, is known as fluid kinema ‘The study of fluids in motion where pressure forces are al: considered, is known as fluid dynamics. 4,2, GAS DYNAMICS Gas dynamics deals withthe sty of maton of gases and is effec It aiffers from fluid dynamics. Gas dynamies considers thermal or chemi cffects while Quid dynamics these effects are generally excluded. 4.3. TYPES OF FLUID FLOW “The fluid flow is classified as follows 1. Steady and Unsteady flows Uniform and Nonuniform flows Laminar and Turbutant flows 2 3 4, Compressible and incompressible flows 5. Rotational and Irotational flows 6. One dimensional flow, Two dimensional flow and Th dimensional flow. Are a : 2 Gas Dynamies and Jet Propulsion 1. Steady and Unsteady flows ‘Steady flow is that type of flow, in which the uid characterisites like velocity, pressure and density at a point do not change with time. Unsteady flow is that type of low, in which the fuid characteristics like velocity, pressure and density at 2 point changes with respect to time. 2. Uniform and Non-uniform flows. Uniform flow is that type of flow, in which the velocity of fluid particles at all sections are equal Non-uniform flow is that type of flow, in which the velocity of fluid particles at all sections are not equal 3. Laminar and Turbulant flows Laminar flow is sometimes called stream line flow. In this type of | flow the uid moves in layers and each fluid particle follows a smooth and continuous path. Jn turbulant flow, the fuid particles move in very irregular paths, 4. Compressible and incompressible flows Compressible flow is that type of flow in which the density of the ‘uid changes from point to point, ie. density is not constant forthe fluid. Density, p # constant Examples : Gases, vapours Incompressible flow is that type of flow in which the density of the ‘uid is constant Density, 9 = constant Example : Liquids 5, Rotational and irrotational flows Rotational flow is thet type of flow in which the fluid particles owing, along stream lines and also rotate about their own axis, Compressible Flow — Fundamentals 1 Irrotational flow is that type of flow in which the fluid particles flowing along stream lines but do not rotate about their own axis, 6. One dimensional, Two dimensional and Three dimensional flows. ‘One dimensional flow is that type of flow in which the flow parameter such as velocity is function of time and one space co-ordinate (x) only. In tis type of flow the stream lines may be represented by straight lines “Two dimensional flow is thattype of flow in which the low parameter such as velocity isa function of time and two space e0-ordinates (x,y) onl. In tis type of flow the siream lines may be represented by a curve, ‘The flow of liquid whose stream lines may be represented in space slong three mutually perpendicular axis (x, y and 2) is called three dimensional flow. 4.4 STEADY FLOW ENERGY EQUATION From first aw of Thermodynamics, we know that the total energy “entering the system is équal to total energy leaving the system.

So, apply Q-0, 2-2 = 0 in Equation (1.1). 4.6 STEADY FLOW ENERGY EQUATION FOR NOZZLE AND DIFFUSER Nozzle is a device which increases the velocity and decreases the pressure of working substance. Diffuser is a device which increases the pressure and decreases the velocity of the w forking substance. In these systems 1. There is no work is done by the system Le. W= 0 2. There is no heat transfer takes place 3. Change in potential energy is negligible ie. 22 = eZ Apply these conditions in Equation (1.1). ic.
