1. Introduction/Overview

This
module aims to provide further knowledge to students concerning different types
of acceleration present in fluid flow and how to create
and solve equations of
fluid motion.

3. Velocity and Acceleration

Let V
be the resultant velocity at any point in a fluid flow. Let u, v and w be its
components in x, y and z directions, respectively. The velocity
components are
functions of space-coordinates and time. Mathematically, the velocity
components are given as:

and
Resultant velocity (V),

Let ax,
ay, and az be the total acceleration in x, y and z
directions, respectively. Then by chain rule of differentiation, we have

4. Local Acceleration and Convective Acceleration

Local
acceleration is defined as the rate of increase of
velocity with respect to time at a given point in a flow field. In the equation
given by

equations 2.1a, 2.1b and 2.1c, the expression

 is
known as local acceleration.

Convective
acceleration is defined as the rate of change of
velocity due to the change of position of fluid particles in a fluid flow. The

expressions other than

 in
equations 2.1a, 2.1b and 2.1c are known as convective acceleration.
