Introduction
Fluid concept
•
Fluid mechanics
is a division in applied mechanics related to the behavior
of
liquid
or
gas
which is either in rest or in motion.
•
The study related to a fluid in rest or stationary is referred to
fluid static
,
otherwise it is referred to as fluid dynamic.
•
Fluid
can be defined as
a substance which can deform continuously when
being subjected to shear stress at any magnitude
. In other words, it can flow
continuously as a result of shearing action. This includes any liquid or gas.
•
Thus, with exception to solids, any other matters can be categorized as fluid.
•
Examples of typical fluid used in engineering applications are
water
,
oil
and
air
.

Fluid Properties
1. Viscosity
Page 10
2. Kinematic viscosity
Applications of Viscosity
1- Plate moving with uniform velocity
Page 11
2- Cylinder moving with uniform velocity
Page 12
2. Surface tension (σ)
Surface tension (σ): A liquid’s ability to resist tension
- Capillarity
Adhesion > Cohesion Cohesion > Adhesion
Cohesion:
Inner force between liquid molecules.
Adhesion:
Attraction force between liquids, and a solid surface.

Static
1. Hydrostatic pressure
Page 15
Pressure equilibrium conditions between two points
1. both point should be in the same fluid
2. the fluid is in static condition
3. fluid is connected
4. free surface on the same level
