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

How does the field of fluid dynamics play a critical role in the design and optimization of aerodynamic structures for aerospace applications, and what are the major challenges engineers face in achieving high-performance and fuel-efficient aircraft in the rapidly evolving aviation industry?
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

This result is limited by the requirement that the Reynolds
number (pVD/u) be less than 1.0. Suppose a steel ball (SG =
7.87) of diameter 2.2 mm falls in SAE 25W oil (SG = 0.88)
at 20°C. The measured fall velocity is 8.4 cm/s. (a) What is
the viscosity of the oil, in kg/m-s? (b) Is the Reynolds num-
ber small enough for a valid estimate?
