The full derivation of the conservation equations for momentum and energy is

presented in this Appendix. For the conservation of momentum, the net force in the
x direction is the sum of the force components acting on the fluid element. Consid-
ering the velocity component u as seen in Fig. 3.4, the surface forces are due to the
normal stress, axx, and the tangential stresses, ~:yxand ~:=, acting on the surfaces of
the fluid element. The net force in the normal x direction is:

axx + ~
OaxxA x ] A y A z - axxA y A z (A.1)

while the net tangential forces acting along the x direction are, respectively, given by

Vyx + -~y A y A x A z - zyx A x A z (A.2)

and
Orzx ]
rzx + ~ A z AxAy- rzxAxAy. (A.3)

The total net force per unit volume on the fluid due to these surface stresses should
be equal to the sum of Eqs. (A.1), (A.2), and (A.3) divided by the control volume
AxAyAz:
Oaxx + O'ryx + ~OTzx

It is not too difficult to verify that the total net forces per unit volume on the rest of
the control volume surfaces in the y direction and z direction are given by:

Combining Eq. (A.4) with the time rate of change of the horizontal velocity component,
u, and body forces, the x momentum equation becomes

In a similar fashion, the y-momentum and z-momentum equations, using Eqs. (A.5)
and (A.6), can be obtained through

If the fluid is taken to be Newtonian and isotropic~since all gases and majority of
liquids are isotropic--the normal stresses, axe, ayy, and azz, appearing in Eqs. (A.7)-
(A.9) can be formulated in terms of pressure, p, and normal viscous stress com-
ponents, rxx, r~, and rzz, acting perpendicular on the control volume. The remaining
terms contain the tangential viscous stress components also described from
Eqs. (A.7)-(A.9). In many fluid flows, a suitable model for the viscous stresses is
introduced, which can be expressed as a function of the local deformation rate (or
strain rate). Assuming that the fluid is Newtonian and isotropic, since all gases and
majority of liquids are isotropic, the rate of linear deformation on the control volume
A x A y A z caused by the motion of fluid can usually be expressed in terms of the
velocity gradients. The normal stress relationships can be expressed as

axx = - p + rxx, ayy = - p + ryy, azz = - p + rzz. (A.10)

According to Newton's law o f viscosity, the normal and tangential viscous stress
components are given by
0u [0u
r ~ = 2 .-y;x + X -y;x + N + N

The proportionality constants of/~ and 2 are the (first) dynamic viscosity that relates
stresses to linear deformation and the second viscosity that relates stresses to the vol-
umetric deformation, respectively. To this present day, not much is known about the
second viscosity. Nevertheless, Stokes hypothesis of ,t = - 2 / 3/~ is frequently used and
it has been found for gases to be a good working approximation.

For the conservation of energy, the rate ofwork done on the control volume Ax A y A z
is equivalent to the product of the force and velocity component which in the x direc-
tion is the velocity component, u. From Fig. 3.5, the work done by the normal force in
the x direction is
[U~rxx+ ~O(UCrXX)Ax] A yAz - ucrxxAyAz (1.15)

while the work done by the tangential forces in the x direction are respectively
given by

For heat added, the net rate of heat transfer to the fluid due to the heat flow in the x
direction is given by the difference between the heat input at surface x and heat loss
at surface x + A x as depicted in Fig. 3.5:

+ ~Ax AyAz - qxAyAz. (A.21)

Similarly, the net rates of heat transfer in the y direction and z direction may also be
expressed as
[qy+ ~0qy ]
A y AxAz-qyAxAz (A.22)

and
+ ~Az ] AxAy - qzAxAy. (A.23)

The total rate of heat added to the fluid divided by the control volume A x A y A z
results in:

Combining Eqs. (A.18), (A.19), (A.20), and (A.24) with the time rate of change of
energy for a given specific energy E of a fluid, the equation for the conservation of

Thus far, we have not defined the specific energy E of a fluid. Often the energy of
a fluid is defined as the sum of the internal energy, kinetic energy, and gravitational
potential energy. We shall regard the gravitational force as a body force and include
the effects of potential energy changes as a source term. In three dimensions, the
specific energy E can be defined as

+ 1 v2 + w2 ) <A6>
internalenergy
kineticenergy
For compressible flows, Eq. (A.26) is often re-arranged to give an equation for the
enthalpy. The specific enthalpy, hsp and the specific (total) enthalpy, h, of a fluid are
defined as

hsp=e+ p and h=hsp+~1 ( u2+ V2 + W2) .


P
Combining these two definitions with the specific energy, E, we obtain

h=e+P+ l(u2 + v2 + W2) = E + - .P (A.27)
