Properties of Fluids

The term fluid represents a type of substance that can easily change its shape under any external pressure/force and can flow. Fluids can acquire any shape in which it is stored and can resist normal stresses but cannot resist shear stress in rest condition. Whenever external shear stress is applied to fluids, it starts to flow. The fluids may be liquid or gas. Example- water, air, etc.

Please answer and explain why each statement must be true or may not be true.
One of the conditions in using the Bernoulli equation is the requirement of inviscid flow. However there is no fluid with zero viscosity in the world except some peculiar fluid at very low temperature. Bernoulli equation or inviscid flow theory is still a very important branch of fluid dynamics for the following reasons: (i) (ii) There is wide region of flow where the velocity gradient is zero and so the viscous effect does not manifest itself, such as in external flow past an un- stalled aerofoil. The conservation of useful energy allows the conversion of kinetic and potential energy to pressure and hence pressure force acting normal to the control volume or system boundary even though the tangential friction stress is absent. It allows the estimation of losses in internal pipe flow. (A) (i) and (ii) (B) (i) and (iii) (ii) and (iii) All of the above (C) (D)

Mott ." cometer, which we can analyze later in Chap. 7. A small ball of diameter D and density p, falls through a tube of test liquid (p. µ). The fall velocity V is calculated by the time to fall a measured distance. The formula for calculating the viscosity of the fluid is discusses a simple falling-ball vis- (Po – p)gD² 18 V This result is limited by the requirement that the Reynolds number (pVD/u) be less than 1.0.

Assume the flow to be turbulent (Cr = 0.074/Re5) over the entire surface because of the constant agitation of the engine block. b) An engine oil at 40°C with kinematic viscosity (v) = 2.485×104 m³/s is flowing over a long flat plate with velocity of 4 m/s.

1. Any equation that comes out of the differential approach is valid at every point in the flow field. On the other hand, the integral approach gives us a point by point value and not an average value. True or False 2. During the analysis of fluid flow, we are more often interested in obtaining the average velocity, and one of the common ways of obtaining the average velocity is to take an average across the flow cross-section. This is called area-average velocity, average along the direction parallel to the principal direction of flow. True or False 3. A crude oil with a density of 875 kilogram per cubic meter is pumped and flowing at 1.5 meter per second through a pipeline 1 meter in diameter. The maximum viscosity of the oil to exhibit a laminar flow behavior is 625 centipoise. True or False
