1.2.4. Specific Gravity. Specific gravity is defined as the ratio of the weight density (or density) of afluid to the weight density (01 density) of a standard fluid. For liquids, the standard fluid is taken water andfor gases, the standard fluid is taken air. Specific gravity is also called rela rive density. It is dimensionless

quantity and is denoted by the symbol S.

1.3.05.Types of Fluids. The fluids may be classified into the following five types:1. Ideal fluid, 2. Real fluid,3. Newtonian fluid,5. Ideal plastic fluid.

1.Ideal Fluid. A fluid, which is incompressible and is having no viscosity, is known as in ideal fluid.Ideal fluid is only an imaginary fluid as all the fluids, which exist, have scme viscosity.

2. Real Fluid. A fluid, which possesses viscosity, isknown as real fluid. All the fluids, in actual practice, are realfluids.

3. Newtonian Fluid. A real fluid, in which the suearstress is directly, proportional to the rate of shear strait, (orvelocity gradient); is known as a Newtonian fluid.

4. Non-Newtonian Fluid. A real fluid, in which theshear stress is not proportional to the rate of shear strain (orvelocity gradient), is known as a Non-Newtonian fluid.

S. Ideal Plastic Fluid. A fluid, in which shear stressis more than the yield value and shear stress is proportionalto the rate of shear strain (or velocity gradient), is known asideal plastic fluid.

The rise ofliquid surface is known as capillary rise while the fall of the liquid surface is known as capillary depression.It is expressed in terms of em or rom of liquid.

Two-dimensional flow is that type of flow in which the velocity is a function of time and tworectangular space co-ordinates say x and y For a steady two-dimensional flow the velocity is a function of twospace co-ordinates only. The variation of velocity in the third direction is negligible. Thus. mathematically fortwo dimensional flow

U=/I(X,y), v=h(x,. y) and w=O.

Three-dimensional flow is that type of flow in which the velocity is a function of time and threemutually perpendicular directions. But for a steady three-dimeosional flow the-fluid parameters are functionsof three space co-ordinates (x, y and z) only. Thus. mathematically. for three-dimensional flow

5.4. RATE OF'FLOW OR DISCHARGE (Q)

It is defined as the quantity of a fluid flowing per second through a section of a pipe or a channel. Foran incompressible fluid (or liquid) the rate of flow or discharge is expressed as the volume of fluid flowingacross the section per second. For compressible fluids. the rate of flow is usually expressed as the weight offluid flowing across the section, Thus

6.8. THE MOMENTUM EQUATIONIt is based on the law of conservation of momentum or on the momentum principle, which states that

the net force acting on a fluid mass is equal to the change in momentum of flow per unit time in that direction.The force acting on a fluid mass 'm' is given by the Newton's second law of motion,

F=mxawhere a is the acceleration acting in the same direction as force F

dvBut a=-dtdvF=m­dt

= d(mv)dt me can be taken inside the differential}

F=~V)dt ...(6.15)

Equation (6.15) is known as the momentum principle.Equation (6.15) can be written as F.dt = d(mv) ...(6.16)

which is known as the impulse-momentum equation and states that the impulse of a force F acting on a fluidmass m in a short interval of time dt is equal to the change of momentum d(mv) inthe direction of force.

Force exerted by a flowing fluid on a Pipe- Bend

The impulse-momentum equation (6.16) is used to determme the resultant force exerted by a flowingfluid on a pipe bend.

Consider two sections (1) and (2), as shown in Fig. 6.18.'Let vl = velocity of flow at section Ift,

PI = pressure intensity at section (1).Al = area of cross-section of PII'" ,\ section (1) and

v2,P2, A2 = corresponding values of velocity, pressure and area at section (2).Let Fx and Fy be the components of Theforces exerted .''', tne flowing fluid on the bend in x-and

1.Loss of head due to sudden enlargement,• 2. Loss of head due to sudden contraction,• 3. Loss of head at the entrance to a pipe

4. Loss of head at the exit of .1 pit»:

20.6. VARIATION OF VELOCITY ANDACCELERATION IN THE SUCTION ANDDELIVEJPIPES DUE TO ACCELERATION OF THE PISTONIt is mentioned in Art. 20.3 that when crank starts rotating, the piston moves forwards and backwa

in the cylinder. At the extreme left position and right position of the piston in the cylinder, the velocity ofpiston is zero. The velocity of the piston is maximum at the centre of the cylinder. This means that at the stof a stroke (may be suction or delivery stroke), the velocity of the piston is zero and this velocity beconmaximum at the centre of each stroke and again becomes zero at the end of each stroke, Thus at the beginniof each stroke, the piston will be having an acceleration and at the end of each stroke, the piston will be havia retardation. The water in the cylinder is in contact with the piston and hence the water, flowing from 1

suction pipe or to the delivery pipe will have an acceleration at the beginning of each stroke and a retardatiat the end of each stroke. This means the velocity of flow of water in the suction and delivery pipe will notuniform. Hence an accelerative or retarding head will be acting on.the water flowing through the suctiondelivery pipe. This accelerative or retarding head will change the pressure inside the cylinder.

If the ratio of length of connecting rod to the radius of crank (i.e.,Llr) is very large, then the motiof the piston can be assumed as simple harmonic in nature. Fig. 20.3 shows the cylinder of a reciprocatisingle acting pump, fitted with a piston which is connected to the crank. Let the crank is rotating at a consuangular speed.

Fig. 20.3. Velocity and acceleration r.f oiston.

(l) =Angular speed of the crank in rad./s,A = Area of the cylinder,a = Area of the pipe (suction or delivery),1= Length of the pipe (suction or delivery), andr = Radius of the crank.

In the beginning, the crank is atA (which is called inner dead centre) and the piston in the cylinderat a position shown by dotted lines. The crank is rotating with an angular velocity (l) and let in time 't' seconcthe crank turns through an angle e (in radians) fromA (i.e., inner dead centre). The displacement of the pisnin time 't' is 'x' as shown in Fig. 20.3.

Now e = Angle turned by crank in radians in time 't'

(1) Using equation (20.15) we get the pressure head due to acceleration in delivery pipe as

I fd A 2"ad = - X - (l) r COS e

At the beginning of delivery stroke, 8 = 0 and hence cos e = 1.:. Pressure head due to acceleration at the beginning of delivery stroke becomes as
