Bernoulli’s Principle states that for an ideal fluid (low speed air is a good approximation)‚ with no work being performed on the fluid‚ an increase in velocity occurs simultaneously with decrease in pressure or a change in the fluid’s gravitational potential energy. This principle is a simplification of Bernoulli’s equation‚ which states that the sum of all forms of energy in a fluid flowing along an enclosed path (a streamline) is the same at any two points in that path. It is named after the

MEHB221 Fluids Mechanics Lab 2014 Experiment No. 5 HEAD LOSS DUE TO PIPE FRICTION Objective To verify that Darcy-Weisbach equation can be used to predict the head loss due to friction with flow of water through a smooth bore pipe. Apparatus Fluid Friction Apparatus‚ FM100. Hydraulic Bench‚ FM110. Summary of theory For water flowing through a circular pipe‚ the head loss due to the friction can be calculated using Darcy-Weisbach equation. h = 4fLu2 2gd Or h = λLu2 2gd Where L = length of pipe

applications. In this review we examine results from simulations of both attached and separated flows on coarse grids in which the near-wall regions are not resolved and are instead represented by approximate wall boundary conditions. The simulations use the dynamic Smagorinsky subgrid-scale model and a second-order finite-difference method. Typical results are found to be mixed‚ with acceptable results found in many cases in the core of the flow far from the walls‚ provided there is adequate numerical resolution

industries used to increase the output of an underground fluid. Fracturing is used to access or augment productivity in petroleum‚ water and natural gas. The actual process is accomplished deep underground when a pressurized fluid is ejected from underground piping into the surrounding rock formations. The pressure of the fluid creates a crack in the rock which continues to expand as the pressure is applied. Solid additives in the pressurized fluid prevent the rupture from resealing once the pressure

efficient separation technique to be employed for an analysis. 2 What is supercritical fluid? 3 Critical temperature (Tc) for any substance is a temperature above which it can no longer exist as a liquid‚ no matter how much pressure is applied. Critical pressure (Pc) is a pressure above which the substance can no longer exist as a gas no matter how high the temperature is raised. A supercritical fluid is any substance that is above its Tc & Pc [critical point]. CRITICAL POINT In other

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Background of Study Vortex induced motion (VIM) or vortex induced vibration (VIV) is an object vibration influenced by the vortex shedding. When fluid flow across the blunt body‚ wake formed behind the bluff object and resulting in vortex shedding. Due to the long periods of motions‚ the vortex induced vibration will commonly refer as vortex induced motion. Vortex-induced motion is an important source of fatigue damage for blunt cylindrical body underwater especially
