Industries
What is Fluid?
Three States of Matter,
? Solid
? Fluids,
? Liquid
? Gas
Solids,
? Shear Strain = function of Stress
? Body recovers when stress is removed
Fluids,
? Deform continuously when subjected to shear stress
? Rate of Shear Strain = function of Shear stress
? Body does not recover when stress is removed
Differences Between Liquids and Gases
Liquids
? Practically incompressible
? Has a finite volume at given pressure and temperature
Gases
? Highly compressible
? Always expands to fill up container
?
What is Fluid Mechanics?
Application of principles of mechanics to
fluid motion,
? Conservation Laws, Mass,Energy,Momentum
? Newton’s Laws of Motion
? Thermodynamic laws for Gases
Main Areas,
? Fluid Statics, Study of Fluid at rest
? Fluid Kinematics, Study of Fluid motion without
considering forces
? Fluid Dynamics, Study relation between motion and
forces
? Hydraulics, Application of Fluid Mechanics to practical
problems
Dimensions and Units
Fluid characteristics (properties) can be described
qualitatively in terms of certain ‘Basic Dimensions’ or
‘Primary Quantities’,
? Length,L
? Mass,M
? Time,T
? Temperature,?
‘Secondary Quantities’ can be derived in terms of the
‘primary quantities’,e.g.
? Area,L2
? Velocity LT-1
? Density,ML-3
Units are standards for quantitative measurement, m,
s,kg
Forces on a Plane in Fluid
Resultant force FR on a plane can be resolved into,
? perpendicular component FN
? tangential component FT
? Pressure P is defined as:
P = Normal force per unit area = FN / A
? Shear stress ? is defined as:
? = Tangential force per unit area = FT / A
? In Fluid statics,FT = 0,only P exists

Fluid Properties,Definitions
Density ? = mass/ volume,kg/m3
Specific Volume Vs = 1/?,m3/kg
Specific weight ? = ? g,N/m3

u
Deformed shape after time t
Original shape at time t = 0
?
F = shear force on top surface of area A
Shear stress ?
= F / A
Shear strain ?
= angular deformation
= x / y = (u.t) / y
Rate of shear strain
= ? / t = (u.t)/(y.t) = u / y
= velocity gradient in direction perpendicular to u (y-
direction)
Newton’s Law of Viscosity
For most fluids,shear stress is proportional to
rate of angular strain,
? ? (?u / ?y)
= ? (?u / ?y)
= ? (u / y)
(Where velocity variation in y direction is linear)
? = property of fluid known as dynamic or absolute
viscosity of fluid,kg/(m.s) or N.s/m2
? = Kinematic viscosity = ? /?,m2/s
Law applies to Newtonian Fluids in laminar
motion

For Newtonian Fluids in laminar
motion,
? = ? (?u / ?y)
= ? (u / y)
(Where velocity variation is linear)
? = dynamic or absolute viscosity of
fluid,kg/(m.s) or N.s/m2
Example

? = ? U/y = 0.08 (Vt)/0.000005
F = ?A = 640 Vt = W Sin 10o
Vt = 0.0234 m/s

Example
Calculate density of sea water at 200 m below
surface,given density at surface is 1025 kg/m3,
Kwater = 2.3x109 N/m2
(Ans, 1025.896 kg/m3)
Solution,
At 200 m below surface,
?P = ? g h = 1025 x 9.81 x 200

?? = 0.896 kg/m3
?’ = ? + ?? = 1025.896 kg/m
