Lessons structure• The lessons will in general be
subdivided in to eight number of parts, viz.:1) Statement of learning objectives2) Points of orders3) Introductory material (Types of flow)4) Concept introduction (The conservation of
mass)5) Development of related principles (flow
continuity)6) Concrete principle examples via –
reinforcement examination type exercises7) Summary and feedback8) Formative assessment, via homework task

Learning Objectives
– State and use the basic thermodynamic laws
– Derive the conservation of mass– Describe the differences between flow
regimes – Calculate simple fluid flow mechanisms– Evaluate volumetric flow rates in fluid
simple systems
After the session the students should be able to:

Recap: Laws of thermodynamics• These are quite simply the 4 axioms (self
evident truths) of all modern Physics, they are known as the four Laws of Thermodynamics and relate to the quantities of
– Zeroth: Temperature– First: Energy– Second: Disorder (Entropy)– Third: Balance of them all
5
Consequences of the first law:
Flow Processes• If we consider the
first law based on some fluid passing through a control volume above a datum (at sea-level) for consentience. Application of the first law, with the following assumption:
1. The mass flow is constant and equal to the outlet mass flow
2. The cross-section properties of the inlet and outlet are constant
Conservation of Mass
Mass cannot be destroyed or created
6
Conservation of massBoth Heat and fluid flow must adhere to the principal of the flow of mass and energy. Here we can consider a system (sometimes referred to as a control volume) with fluid flow (or heat) in and out of the system
The unit of mass flow the kg per second (kg/s). Because speed has magnitude and direction, it vector quantity.

The Consequence of to Conservation of Mass
1. The mass (and sometimes volume) flow rate of a in-viscid, incompressible fluid (like water or oil) is constant.
2. This principle is one of probably the fundamental assumption in the field of Fluid Mechanics, this will now be explored!
Class Examples Time:
Think of some process which adhere to the above
8
Fluids in motionAs an example of this principle we will investigate the concept of a fluid
(say water) in motion. There is still a little terminology that is required before we proceed, these being:
1. Assumptions regarding the fluid in motion, namely:
a) Viscid
b) In-viscid
2. Assumptions regarding the type of flow regime’
a) Laminar
b) Transition
c) Turbulent
3. Assumptions regarding Compressibility:
1. Compressible, or
2. In-compressible
9
1. Viscosity• The viscosity of a fluid is the internal
resistance to a change in the shape. Typically viscous fluids are treacle like: glycerine and thick oils. All fluids have some type of viscosity, however some fluids have such small viscosities have (e.g. water, air) can be considered in-viscid i.e. the viscosity of the fluid can be ignored! It is these type of fluids we considered here.
• Hence we have:1. Viscid fluids (includes fluid viscosity effects)2. In-viscid fluids (neglects fluid viscosity effects)
Since the math is considerably reduced when in-viscid fluids are concerned it is these types we consider!
10
2. Flow regime’• Laminar
• Turbulent
• Transition flow
Class Exercise:
Use the internet to find defientions of the above!
11
3. Compressibility• Incompressible fluid: Where the density of the
fluid remains constant! (This course)
• Incompressible fluid: Where the density of the fluid changes during the flow process! (Not this course)
• When the Compressibility (Bulk) Modulus is?

Continuity of flow
• For the system shown, given that the flow is laminar, in-viscid and incompressible, find the flow rate at the outlet.

• Here we could just apply the conservation of mass, as we know it is a consequence of the first law of thermodynamics, thus:
