Objectives
1. comprehend the concepts necessary to analyse fluids in
motion.
2. identify differences between steady/unsteady,
uniform/non-uniform and compressible/incompressible
flow.
3. construct streamlines and stream tubes.
4. appreciate the Continuity principle through Conservation
of Mass and Control Volumes.
5. derive the Bernoulli (energy) equation.
6. familiarise with the momentum equation for a fluid flow.

Inviscid Flow
In this chapter we consider ideal fluid motion known
as inviscid flow; this type of flow occurs when either
1) 0 (only valid for He near 0 K), or
2) viscous shearing stresses are negligible
non-uniform:
steady:
unsteady:
Turbulent Flow
Turbulent Flow
the particles move in an irregular manner through the flow field.
Each particle has superimposed on its mean velocity fluctuating velocity
components both transverse to and in the direction of the net flow.

Transition Flow
exists between laminar and turbulent flow.
In this region, the flow is very unpredictable and often changeable back and forth
between laminar and turbulent states.
Modern experimentation has demonstrated that this type of flow may comprise
short burst of turbulence embedded in a laminar flow.

The most used and the most abused equation in fluid mechanics.
3.1 Newtons Second Law: F = ma
In general, most real flows are 3-D, unsteady (x, y, z, t; r, , z, t;etc)
Let consider a 2-D motion of flow along streamlines, as shown below.

Conservation of Mass
Mass can neither be created nor destroyed
For a control volume undergoing steady fluid
flow, the rate of mass entering must equal the rate
of mass exiting:
