Lecture No. 5 CLASSIFICATION OF FLUID FLOW AND THE CONTINUITY EQUATION 5.1 Classification of Fluid Flow Uniform flow If the velocity of the fluid is the same in magnitude and direction at every point in the fluid the flow is said to be uniform. Non-uniform flow A non-uniform flow is one where the velocities at different points at a given instant are not the same. Every fluid that flows near a solid boundary will be non-uniform because the fluid at the boundary takes the velocity of the

FLOW MEASUREMENT (Venturi meter‚ Orifice Plate and Rotameter) OBJECTIVES To study the characteristics and applications of various flow measuring device (venturi meter & orifice plate). To calculate the volume flow rate of water from the pressure difference of both venturi and orifice devices. To compare between theoretical and actual volumetric flow rate through the discharge coefficient concept. To know how rotameter works. INTRODUCTION The measurement of fluid flow is important in applications

Although a significant distinction exists between liquids and gases‚ both types of fluids obey the same laws of motion. In most cases of interest‚ a fluid can be regarded as continuum‚ i

Impaired driving affects both teens and adults‚ but it affects adults a lot more than it does teens. “ There is approximately one death every 53 minutes from driving impaired. Everyday in the united states 28 people die from driving while impaired.” (intoxalock.com). The problem our group came up with was how teens are better than adults while being impaired. The hypothesis we had was when teens are impaired they will be able to react to things better than adults. The experiment we had to do was

Drunk driving does not only affect the person but also their family‚ friends and community. Those who are trying to help them to become safer drivers and stop drinking are greatly affected by the person who is making bad choices. Those who drive drunk are greatly effected because they put themselves in danger. They put themselves in danger of death‚ injury or killing others while under the influence. If they injure someone or kill someone who is in the car with them it will affect their family and

Channel Flow of a Compressible Fluid Due Date: March 15‚ 2013 Concept 1: Choking Choking occurs when the Mach number at the throat of a channel flow is equal to one. Conceptually choking is the phenomena where the flow in a channel transitions to sonic flow. Due to the conditions of choking‚ the velocity‚ density‚ and pressure can increase or decrease continuously through a sonic throat‚ and the flow does not need to be symmetrical. Another notable phenomena is that the maximum velocity does not
