For a steady, non-viscous and incompressible flow, one can apply both Bernoulli's principle (no potentials) as
$$p+\frac{\rho v^2}{2} = p_t$$
where ##p##, ##\rho,##, ##v##, and ##p_t## are static pressure, density, flow velocity, and total pressure, respectively,
and continuitiy principle as...
Assume the jet is straight but the radius of the jet varies over it's length (like a jet of water falling which narrows due to gravitational acceleration). Also ignore viscosity. A pressure gradient would be required to accelerate the fluid radially. Because during an expansion transformation...
Letβs say we have a unit volume of some fluid in a column on the Earth surface. Let ##\mathbf F## be the gravitational force that acts on the unit volume of the fluid.
Consider a small volume element ##\Delta \tau## in the fluid and letβs assume it to be a cuboid with dimensions ##\Delta x##...

The figure below shows a metal object (2) hanging by a thin cord from a floating wooden block (1). The wood block has a SG of 0.3 and dimensions of 50mm x 50mm x 10mm. The metal part as a volume of 6600m^3. Find the mass of the metal part and the tension in the cord. Work in...
Hello,
in some exam questions I've looked at it is stated that the pressure distribution is hydrostatic, even though there is fluid motion. (In these cases the velocity has been constant over the section where the pressure is said to be hydrostatic). Is it really possible to assume that the...
Consider a hypothetical pipe of length L and diameter d with both end closed. The pipe is filled with a some fluid. Let there be a ultrasound source of frequency f=v/2L at one end of the pipe and a sensor to measure pressure at the other end of the pipe, where v is the speed of ultrasound wave...
I am currently new in this forum and just a senior high graduate, so pardon me if I have some errors in writing this questions.

Hello,
We are an importer of SCUBA diving equipment and are building a pool. I see multiple formulas and opinions, I'm hoping for a KISS answer. Although I don't think Width or length has anything to do with my question, we are building a deep shaft pool that will be 25'Wx35'Lx88'D. What is the...
If you have a cooker with a volume of 3000 cm^3, then you add 200 ml of water, and let it turn into vapor at 100 C over time, how would you calculate the pressure at any point during the evaporation? It's not homework, just an example so you get what I am saying.
I'm trying to figure out why my back hurts when I sleep and I can't figure out the physics behind it.
So I sleep on an air mattress. The mattress fits firmly into the frame, which puts a constraint on the mattress to where it cannot expand on it's sides. Think of the mattress as being in a box...
Hi all,
I am analysing the flow of water in a subsea pipe, and have been getting stuck in trying to solve the energy equation to plot a temperature distribution across the pipe diameter
I have derived the equation as such seen in my attachement. But my main question is how should/would I...
Hi All,
I'm hoping to work on deriving the governing fluid flow equations for a frisbee in flight theoretically and then to test it on a wind tunnel, and compare results. If u could please help on how do i apply/derive the necessary equations.

Hi all,
I am designing an artificial rain system and was thinking about using http://www.dannermfg.com/Store/Products/Danner/PID-02720.aspx to power it. The goal of the system is to deliver roughly 1 gallon of water per hour to each of the 8 exit points (I will measure this by using a bucket...
Hey all,
So I have a small convergent nozzle that I'm modelling in Abaqus and I'm wondering how I could work out the pressure distribution so I can apply the correct load. The problem is I only know the pressure being fed to it by air compressor. Is there a way to use Bernoulli s or some other...
Hi, even though it seems so simple; I can't solve this since a few days and it's driving me crazy.
Flow gets inside the tube from point 1, it will create a vacuum, which will let a secondary flow inlet from point 2. Both flows will mix inside the tube, and get out of the junction from point...
Considering a unit mass of an ideal gas in a cylindrical container of volume 'V' at temperature 'T' the pressure exerted by the gas at the walls of the container is given by the ideal gas equation as,
pV=RT where 'R' is the characteristic gas constant for the particular gas.

Suppose there is a square box with an ideal gas inside at standard temperature and pressure. Now one side of the box is heated up while the other opposite side remains at room temperature (assume a large heat sink). It is clear the temperature distribution of the gas inside the chamber will...

I'm trying to obtain the drag force acting on a smooth cylinder at the exit plane of a wind tunnel. I took measurements of pressure at regular degree intervals around the cylinder.
The pressure readings are in inches of water, and I know the freestream velocity and the stagnation pressure...
