DYNAMICS OF FLUID \ rahi 1 INTRODUCTION In the previous chapter, we studied the velocity and acceleration at a point in a fluid flow, without taking into consideration the forces causing the flow. This chapter includes the study of forces causing fluid flow. Thus dynamics of fluid flow is the study of fluid motion with the forces causing flow. The dynamic behaviour of the fluid flow is analysed by the Newton's second law of motion, which relates the acceleration with the forces. The fluid is assumed to be incompressible and non-viscous. » 6.2 EQUATIONS OF MOTION According to Newton's second law of motion, the net force F, acting on a fluid element in the dircetion of xis equal 10 mass m of the fluid element multiplied by the acceleration a, inthe x-direction. ‘Thus mathematically, Fema, 6.1) In the fluid flow, the following forces are present : (Fy gravity force. (Gi) Fy. the pressure force. (iii) F,,foree due to viscosity. (iv) Fy force due to turbulence.

(ii) For flow, where (F,) is negligible, the resulting equations of motion are known as Navier-Stokes Equation. (iit) Ifthe flow is assumed to be ideal, viscous force (F,) is zer0 and equation of motions are known as Euler’s equation of motion, 259 [260 Fluid Mechanics » 6.3 EULER'S EQUATION OF MOTION ‘This is equation of motion in which the forces due to gravity and pressure are taken into considera- tion. This is derived by considering the motion of a fluid element along a stream-line as : Consider a stream-line in which flow is taking place in s-direction as shown in Fig. 6.1. Consider a cylindrical element of cross-section dA and length ds. The forces acting on the cylindrical element are: 1. Pressure force pdA in the direction of flow. 3. Weight of element pgdAds. Let @ is the angle between the direction of flow and the line of action of the weight of element. ‘The resultant force on the fluid element in the direction of s must be equal to the mass of fluid ‘eration in the direction s. clement : pat-(n 3a) r-patnscoss pdAds x a, 6.2) whee ashe aceleration inte destin of Now a= 2 wee a tune oa ae a vv as ar és ov ite now i seas, % =0 d vay.

It is a device used for measuring the velocity of flow at any point ina pipe or a channel. Itis based on the principle that if the velocity of flow at a point becomes zero, the pressure there is increased due to the conversion of the kinetic energy into pressure energy. In its simplest form, the pitot-tube consists of a glass tube, bent at right angles as shown in Fig. 6.13. The lower end, which is bent through 90° is directed in the up- stream direction as shown in Fig. 6.13. The liquid rises up in the tube due to the conversion of kinetic energy into pressure energy. The velocity is determined by measuring the rise of liquid in the tube. 7 Consider two points (1) and (2) at the same level in such a way that point (2) is just as the inlet of the pitot-tube and point (1) is far away from the tube. Let intensity of pressure at point (1) velocity of flow at (1) p= pressure at point (2) velocity at point (2), which is zero H = depth of tube in the liquid ‘= rise of liquid in the tube above the free surface.
