Consider the general form of the Reynolds transport theorem (RTT) given by dBsys / dt = d/dt ∫CV ρb dV +∫CS ρbV-› r·n-› dAwhere V-›r is the velocity of the fluid relative to the control surface. Let Bsys be the mass m of a closed system of fluid particles. We know that for a system, dm/dt = 0 since no mass can enter or leave the system by definition. Use the given equation to derive the equation of conservation of mass for a control volume.

Consider the general form of the Reynolds transport theorem (RTT) given by dBsys / dt = d/dt ∫CV ρb dV +∫CS ρbV-› r·n-› dA
where V-›r is the velocity of the fluid relative to the control surface. Let Bsys be the mass m of a closed system of fluid particles. We know that for a system, dm/dt = 0 since no mass can enter or leave the system by definition. Use the given equation to derive the equation of conservation of mass for a control volume.
