What does the word kinematics mean? Explain what the study of fluid kinematics involves.

Meaning of kinematics and explain the fluid kinematics.
Explanation of Solution
In kinematics, we study the motion of a body and study of forces is not involved. Kinematics involves only the result of motion without knowing the type of the forces acting or acted on the body. In simple meaning, the study of forces without knowing the forces is called kinematics.
The fluid kinematics deals with the movement of the fluid and fluid can be liquid or material which has fluid properties. In fluid kinematics, only the study of the motion of the fluid is considered. The study of the motion of fluid without considering the forces is called fluid kinematics. Using mainly two methods properties of the fluid can be defined in fluid kinematics; the first one is the Eulerian method and the second one is the Lagrangian method.

- Thermodynamics: Mass and Energy Analysis Of Control Volumes The state of liquid water is changed from 55 psia and 45◦F to 2000 psia and 120◦F. Determine the change inthe internal energy and enthalpy of water on the basis of the (a) compressed liquid tables, (b) incompressiblesubstance approximation and property tables, and (c) specific-heat model.arrow_forwardThermodynamics: Mass and Energy Analysis Of Control Volumes What is the change in enthalpy, in kJ/kg, of oxygen as its temperature changes from 150 to 250◦C? Is thereany difference if the temperature change were from −50 to 100◦C? Does the pressure at the beginning andend of this process have any effect on the enthalpy change?arrow_forwardThermodynamics: Mass and Energy Analysis Of Control Volumes A 50-L electrical radiator containing heating oil is placed in a 50-m3 room. Both the room and the oil in theradiator are initially at 5◦C. The radiator with a rating of 3 kW is now turned on. At the same time, heatis lost from the room at an average rate of 0.3 kJ/s. After some time, the average temperature is measuredto be 20◦C for the air in the room, and 60◦C for the oil in the radiator. Taking the density and the specificheat of the oil to be 950 kg/m3 and 2.2 kJ/(kg◦C), respectively, determine how long the heater is kept on.Assume the room is well-sealed so that there are no air leaks.arrow_forward

Pulley A receives power from a motor through a belt with the belt tensions shown. The power is transmitted through the shaft and delivered to the belt on pulley B. Assume the belt tension on the loose side (T1) at B is 30% of the tension on the tight side (T2).
