Continuity equation & types of flow |FLUID MECHANICS ||PART -4

Basic terminology of fluid mechanics 

Steady flow : In this flow velocity of fluid particle don't change with time at fixed point of fluid is called steady flow.

Unsteady flow: In this flow velocity of particle change with time at fixed point of fluid is called unsteady fluid .

Uniform flow : In this flow the magnitude of flow don't change (same ) at point of fluid .

Non-uniform flow: In this flow the magnitude of flow  change (different) at point of fluid .

Laminar flow :  In this flow fluid particle move in smooth and regular in motion is called laminar fluid is called laminar fluid and it is also  called steam line flow .

Turbulent flow :  In this flow fluid particle move in randomly  and irregular  in motion is called laminar fluid is called laminar fluid.

Continuity equation :

According to this law the inlet fluid is equal to outlet fluid this law based on the conservation of mass .

Q = p.A.V 

Where the Q is discharge of fluid and p is density , A is cross sectional area of pipe , V is velocity of fluid .

    For calculation of discharge :

Q = p1.A1.V1 = p2.A2.V2        for Compressible fluid 

Q = A1.V1 = A2.V          for incompressible fluid
