Fluidmechanicsitselfisalsodividedintoseveralcategories.Thestudyofthemotiono fluids that can be approximated as incompressible (such as liquids, especially water, an gases at low speeds) is usually referred to as hydrodynamics. A subcategory o hydrodynamicsishydraulics,whichdealswithliquidflowsinpipesandopenchannels.Ga dynamicsdealswiththeflowoffluidsthatundergosignificantdensitychanges,suchasthe flow of gases through nozzles at high speeds. The category aerodynamics deals with th flowofgases(especiallyair)overbodiessuchasaircraft,rockets,andautomobilesathigho low speeds. Some other specialized categories such as meteorology, oceanography, an hydrologydealwithnaturallyoccurringflows.

WhatIsaFluid? Youwillrecallfromphysicsthatasubstanceexistsinthreeprimaryphases:solid,liquid,and gas. (At very high temperatures, it also exists as plasma.) A substance in the liquid or ga phaseisreferredtoasafluid.Distinctionbetweenasolidandafluidismadeonthebasiso thesubstance’sabilitytoresistanappliedshear(ortangential)stressthattendstochangeit shape. A solid can resist an applied shear stress by deforming, whereas a fluid deform continuouslyundertheinfluence ofa shearstress,no matterhow small.In solids,stressi proportional to strain, but in fluids, stress is proportional to strain rate. When a constan shearforceisapplied,asolideventuallystopsdeformingatsomefixedstrainangle,wherea afluidneverstopsdeformingandapproachesaconstantrateofstrain. Considerarectangularrubberblocktightlyplacedbetweentwoplates.Astheupperplat is pulled with a force F while the lower plate is held fixed, the rubber block deforms, a shown in Fig. 1–2. The angle of deformation α (called the shear strain or angula displacement) increases in proportion to the applied force F. Assuming there is no sli betweentherubberandtheplates,theuppersurfaceoftherubberisdisplacedbyanamoun equal to thedisplacement of the upper platewhile the lower surface remains stationary. In equilibrium,thenetforceactingontheupperplateinthehorizontaldirectionmustbezero

andthusaforceequalandoppositetoFmustbeactingontheplate.Thisopposingforcetha developsattheplate–rubberinterfaceduetofrictionisexpressedas F= τA,where τis th shearstressand Aisthecontactareabetweentheupperplateandtherubber.Whentheforc is removed, the rubber returns to its original position. This phenomenon would also b observed with other solids such as a steel block provided that the applied force does no exceedtheelasticrange.Ifthisexperimentwererepeatedwithafluid(withtwolargeparalle platesplacedinalarge 3

Youwillrecallfromstaticsthatstressisdefinedasforceperunitareaandisdetermined bydividingtheforcebytheareauponwhichitacts.Thenormalcomponentofaforceacting onasurfaceperunitareaiscalledthenormalstress,andthetangentialcomponentofaforc actingonasurfaceperunitareaiscalledshearstress(Fig.1–3).Inafluidatrest,thenorma stressiscalledpressure.Afluidatrestisatastateofzeroshearstress.Whenthewallsar removedoraliquidcontaineristilted,asheardevelopsastheliquidmovestore-establish horizontalfreesurface.

FIGURE1–3 The normal stress and shear stress at the surface of a fluid element. For fluids at rest, th shearstressiszeroandpressureistheonlynormalstress. Inaliquid,groupsofmoleculescanmoverelativetoeachother,butthevolumeremain relativelyconstantbecauseofthestrongcohesiveforcesbetweenthemolecules.Asaresult a liquid takes the shape of the container it is in, and it forms a free surface in a large container in a gravitationalfield. A gas, on the other hand, expands until it encounters the wallsofthecontainerandfillstheentireavailablespace.Thisisbecausethegasmolecule arewidelyspaced,andthecohesiveforcesbetweenthemareverysmall.Unlikeliquids,aga inanopencontainercannotformafreesurface(Fig.1–4). Althoughsolidsandfluidsareeasilydistinguishedinmostcases,thisdistinctionisnotso clearinsomeborderlinecases.Forexample, asphaltappearsandbehavesasasolidsincei resists shear stress for short periods of time. When these forces are exerted over extended periods of time, however, the asphalt deforms slowly, behaving as a fluid. Some plastics lead, and slurry mixtures exhibit similar behavior. Such borderline cases are beyond th scopeofthistext.Thefluidswedealwithinthistextwillbeclearlyrecognizableasfluids.

Inthegasphase,themoleculesarefarapartfromeachother,andmolecularorderingi nonexistent.Gasmoleculesmoveaboutatrandom,continuallycollidingwitheachotherand the walls of the container in which they are confined. Particularly at low densities, th intermolecularforcesareverysmall,andcollisionsaretheonlymodeofinteractionbetween themolecules.Moleculesinthegasphaseareataconsiderablyhigherenergylevelthanthey areintheliquidorsolidphase.Therefore,thegasmustreleasealargeamountofitsenergy beforeitcancondenseorfreeze.

thecurrentphaseisnotfarfromastateofcondensation. Anypracticalfluidsystemconsistsofalargenumberofmolecules,andthepropertieso thesystemnaturallydependonthebehaviorofthesemolecules.Forexample,thepressureo agasinacontaineristheresultofmomentumtransferbetweenthemoleculesandthewall ofthecontainer.However,onedoesnotneedtoknowthebehaviorofthegasmoleculesto determine the pressure in the container. It is sufficient to attach a pressure gage to th container(Fig.1–6).Thismacroscopicorclassicalapproachdoesnotrequireaknowledgeo the behavior of individual molecules and provides a direct and easy way to analyz engineeringproblems.Themoreelaboratemicroscopicor statisticalapproach,basedonthe averagebehavior of large groups ofindividual molecules,is ratherinvolved and isused in thistextonlyinasupportingrole.
