a branch of physical science which deals with the mechanics of liquids and gases and is based on the same fundamental
principles that are in the mechanics of solidFluid Mechanics
is the study if mechanics of fluids at restFluid Statics
deals with the velocities and streamlines without considering forces of energyFluid Kinematics
concerned with the relations between velocities and accelerations and the forces exerted or upon fluids in motion.
Hydronamics
are the substances capable of flowing. They possess particles which easily move and change their relative position without separation of
the mass, and they offer practically no resistance to change in form.
Fluids
one in which there is no friction nor viscosity.
ideal or perfect fluid
are fluids which have little resistance to change either in form or volume and occupies all the space in which it is containedGases
are fluids which offer great resistance to change in volume and occupies a definite portion in which it is containedLiquid
is a system in which working substance does not cross its boundaries but energy crosses its boundariesClosed System
is a thermodynamics system in which both the working substance and energy are crossing its boundaries. An example of which is a pump or compressor being cut from the suction point to the discharge side.Open System
thermodynamic system in which neither the mass (working substance) nor energy crosses its boundaries, and completely
not affected by the surrounding conditions.
Isolated System
are thermodynamic properties that are independent of the mass of the substance in the system. Intensive Properties
are thermodynamic properties that are dependent upon the mass of the substance in the system. These properties are total
values. Extensive Properties
are properties that are considered for a unit mass, and are intensive by definition Example: specific volume, specific internal
energy, or specific enthalpy.
Specific Properties
is a measure of a physical variable (without numerical values), Dimension
is a way to assign a number or measurement to that dimensionunit
is the absolute quantity of matter in substance or bodyMass
is the force of gravity on the body and could be determined by a spring scaleWeight
is an intensive thermodynamic property that is usually used to determine the mass of the substance or system.Density
s the volume of a unit mass substance; it is also defined as the reciprocal of densitySpecific Volume
is the force of gravity per unit volume of a substanceSpecific Weight
is the ratio of the specific weight of a certain substance to that of the specific weight of water at standard condition.Specific Gravity
