1. Continuum assumption
• Continuum assumption:
– Valid if the mean free path of the molecules is (10-9 mfor gases) much less than the smallest significant dimension of the problem (<10-6 m)
– Both air and water under normal conditions satisfy this condition
• Under the continuum assumption
– fluid properties are continuous functions of position and time
• E.g. ρ=ρ(x,y,z,t)

2. Measures of fluid mass and weight
∀= /mρ1. Averaged density: mass per unit volume
(In SI, kg/m3) (2.1)
2. Specific volume: volume per unit mass. It is the reciprocal of the density
1/υ ρ= (2.2)
gργ =3. Specific weight γ: Weight per unit volume
(In SI, kg/m3·m/s2 = N/m3) (2.3)
4. Specific gravity SG: a non-dimensional quantity
Fluids: ρ depends slightly on T and P under normal conditions.Gases: depend significantly on T and P

3. Ideal gas law
Ideal gas law: P RTρ= (2.5)
P: absolute pressure (N/m2), measured relative zero pressure,
p: gage pressure (Pa), measured by a pressure gage,
p0: Standard sea-level atmospheric pressure, 101.33 kPa.
T: absolute temperature (K); K = °C + 273.15 (K: Kelvin)
R: gas constant (air is R = 286.9 (Joule/(kg K)), depending on
gas types and is related to molecular weight
0P p p= +
An ideal gas or perfect gas: hypothetical gas consisting ofidentical particles of zero volume, with no intermolecular forces. The constituent molecules undergo elastic collisions with the walls of the container.

Example 2.1A compressed air tank has a volume of 0.05 m3. When the tank is filled with air at a gage pressure of 10 MPa, determine the density of the air and the mass of air in the tank. Assume the temperature is 15 oC and the atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa.

4. Velocity field• Velocity
– One of the most fundamental quantities in fluid mechanics,
– Velocity at a point: the instantaneous velocity of the fluid particle passing through the point
• Velocity is a vector:

� Yes → Uniform flow
• Uniform flow at a cross section: velocity is constant at this cross-section
• Uniform flow field: a flow with constant velocity U

9. Types of fluids
• Newtonian fluids
– Shear stress is proportional to deformation rate
τ = µdu/dy
– Most of common fluids, e. g. water, air, gasoline
• Non-Newtonian fluids
– Shear stress is not proportional to deformation rate
τyx = k(du/dy)n
– Bingham fluids, shear thinning and shear thickening fluids, …

– 3 normal stress and 6 shear stresses
– Symbols and sign conventions
• Viscosity: a measure for “fluidity” of a fluid
– Definition for Newtonian fluids (τyx = µdu/dy);
– Dynamic viscosityµ has a unit of kg/(m·s)or Pa·s , or N·s/m2;
– The kinematic viscosity (ν =µ/ρ, m2/s)

10. Surface tension
• Develops at interfaces with other liquids or solids due to the attraction between molecules as shown in the figures below
• Surface tension: force per unit length (N/m)
• The interface acts like a stretched elastic membrane (with a contact angle θ), creating surface tension σ
• θ and σ depend on the type of liquid and contact surface
30
10.1. Pressure inside a drop of fluid:
Free-body diagram
σ: surface tension (N/m)
∆p = pi − pe
pi: internal pressure
pe: external pressure
Force around the edge: 2πRσ
Force due to the pressure difference: ∆pπR2.
Using force balance:
2πRσ = ∆pπR2
⇒ ∆p = 2 σ/R (2.15a)
31
32
– Insignificant for large scale of motions– Important for some of small scale motions: e.g.
capillary rise (or depression)
– θ: angle of contact

11. Compressibility of fluids
1. Incompressible fluids
– density change negligible:
– Liquids and gases with small Mach number (M =
V/C<0.3, C is the speed of sound and V is flow velocity)
2. Compressible fluids
– density change is not negligible
– e. g. flow of gases (M>0.3); some flows of liquids under extremely high pressure ( water hammer);
35
12. Bulk modulus
Bulk compressibility modulus (or modulus elasticity)
– Ratio of pressure change to relative density change (compressibility)
– Has the unit of pressure (Pascal:N/m2)
– Check Appendix A of Fox et al. Book for the values for common fluids

13. Compression and expansion of gases
When gases are compressed (or expanded) the relationship between pressure and density depends on the nature of the process;
• Under constant temperature conditions (isothermal):
constantp
ρ= (2.17)
(2.18)pEv =
37
• Under isentropic conditions (frictionless compression and no heat exchange with surroundings):
constantk
p
ρ=
K: ratio of the specific heat at constant pressure, cp, to the specific heat at constant volume cv (R = cp – cv).
Note: Pressure in the above equations has to be the absolute pressure.

15. Vapour Pressure
Vapour pressure: a pressure developed in a vacuum space left above the liquid in a closed container.
•It depends on temperature. Temperature ↑, vapour pressure ↑•Boiling: when the absolute pressure reaches the pv,
•Importance in engineering applications:
For fluid passing valve and pumps, when p< pv ⇒vaporbubble (low p) ⇒ swept along high p ⇒ bubble collapse ⇒may damage the structures − cavitation (picture above).

16.1. Viscous and inviscid flows
• All real flows are viscous
• Flows are assumed inviscid when viscosity is not important for problems of concern
– Total drag on an airfoil
• Analysis of inviscid flows is much simpler than viscous flows
– Laplace equation (for irrotational flows)
– Navier-stokes equations (for viscous flows)

16.2 Laminar and turbulent flows
• Laminar flow– Fluid particles move in smooth layers
• Turbulent flow
– Fluid particles mix rapidly with random three-dimensional velocity fluctuations
47
16.3. Internal and external flows
• Internal flows
– Flows completely bounded by solid surfaces
e. g. flow in pipes
• External flows
– Flows over bodies immersed in unbounded fluid, e. g. flow around a submarine
• Both internal and external flows may be laminar or turbulent, compressible or incompressible
