  2. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  3. Shell balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_Balance

    Find momentum from the flow. Momentum flows into the system at x = 0 and out at x = L. The flow is steady state. Therefore, the momentum flow at x = 0 is equal to the moment of flow at x = L. Therefore, these cancel out. Find gravity force on the shell. Find pressure forces. Plug into conservation of momentum and solve for τ yx.

  4. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  5. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    If correctly selected, it reaches terminal velocity, which can be measured by the time it takes to pass two marks on the tube. Electronic sensing can be used for opaque fluids. Knowing the terminal velocity, the size and density of the sphere, and the density of the liquid, Stokes' law can be used to calculate the viscosity of the fluid. A ...

  6. Newtonian fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian_fluid

    is the partial derivative in the direction x of the flow velocity component v that is oriented along the direction y. We can now generalize to the case of an incompressible flow with a general direction in the 3D space, the above constitutive equation becomes τ i j = μ ( ∂ v i ∂ x j + ∂ v j ∂ x i ) {\displaystyle \tau _{ij}=\mu \left ...

  7. Navier–Stokes equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navier–Stokes_equations

    The solution of the equations is a flow velocity.It is a vector field—to every point in a fluid, at any moment in a time interval, it gives a vector whose direction and magnitude are those of the velocity of the fluid at that point in space and at that moment in time.

  8. Material derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Material_derivative

    For example, for a macroscopic scalar field φ(x, t) and a macroscopic vector field A(x, t) the definition becomes: +, +. In the scalar case ∇ φ is simply the gradient of a scalar, while ∇ A is the covariant derivative of the macroscopic vector (which can also be thought of as the Jacobian matrix of A as a function of x ).

  9. Reaction rate constant - Wikipedia

    where A and B are reactants C is a product a, b, and c are stoichiometric coefficients,. the reaction rate is often found to have the form: = [] [] Here ⁠ ⁠ is the reaction rate constant that depends on temperature, and [A] and [B] are the molar concentrations of substances A and B in moles per unit volume of solution, assuming the reaction is taking place throughout the volume of the ...
