This chapter discusses the fluid flow in pipes. Problems concerned with the flow of water in pipes are usually solved by either the Darcy formulae or the Maurice Levy formulae. When water, juices, or syrups are transported in the factory, by means of a pump, or even for a short ...
This powerful problem-solver gives you 2,500 problems in fluid mechanics and hydraulics, fully solved step-by-step! From "Schaum's", the originator of the solved-problem guide, and students' favorite with over 30 million study guides sold - this timesaver helps you master every type of flui...
Control of fluid flow in multiple outlet pipes is a complex problem. A computer model is developed for the estimation of pressure heads on multiple outlet pipes in reference to the operating head. The model uses the complex fluid mechanics involved in the flow. The problem is solved by a num...
Lastly, a growing number of engineers, mathematicians, computer scientists, and physicists work in the area of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). In CFD, you may still run an experiment of waves across water, an airplane in a wind tunnel, or flow through pipes, but now it is done through...
In the context of fluid mechanics, multiphase flows can be taken as simply any fluid flow system consisting of two or more distinct phases flowing simultaneously in mixture, having some level of phase separation at a scale well above the molecular level. ...
Since fluid flow problems usually treat a fluid crossing the boundaries of a control volume, the control volume approach is referred to as an “open” system analysis, which is similar to the concepts studied in thermodynamics. There are special cases in the nuclear field where fluid does not ...
Introduction Fluid dynamics is the study of the motion of fluids, usually in the presence of an object. Typical fluid flows of interest to engineers and scientist include flow in pipes, through engines, and around objects, such as buildings, automobiles, and airplanes. Computational fluid dynamics...
The principle of conservation of the fluid flow rate is why tap jets decrease their section while falling (figure 2): the falling liquid accelerates due to gravity, thus the section of the flow decreases proportionally. In this section, we have focused on real or virtual pipes of finite dimen...
in pipes, and various instruments can be used to measure the volume flow rate as described below. As noted in the introduction, these all assumelaminar flow. In addition, flowing liquids are sometimes carried in an open channel, in which case the volume flow rate can be measured by an ...
