Fluid mechanics: deals with fluid flow at rest or at motion without considering the

forces acted upon it or fluid motions with forces acting upon it or interaction of
fluids with solids.
-fluid statics (fluid at rest or at uniform motion, that is change of V=0 i.e. fluids are
not moving)
-Fluid Kinematics (fluid with motion, but without considering the forces acted upon
it)
_fluid Dynamics (Fluid with motion, with forces.)

** The fundamental laws that govern fluid behaviors are(1) The law of conservation of mass
(2) Newtons second law of motion: generalized form of second law is:

d
( mv )= F ,where F is external forces applied on a
dt

body
(3) The first law of thermodynamics ,U(internal
energy)=Q(heat added to system)-W(Work done by
the system)
(4) The second law of thermodynamics: change in
dQ
entropy, S 0i . e . change of heat unit time , T 0
