Superposable Fluid Motion

It has already been shown that the hydrodynamic flows given by equations (1) and (20) are self –superposable. It
    
can also easily be shown that if, q1 and q2 be the two flows given by equations (1) and (20), then p for q1  q2
 
can also be represented by the gradient of scalar quantities. Thus q1 and q2 will be mutually superposable and a
flow

is possible. The mass flow can be determined by mutually superposing the flows (7) and (21), (12) and (19).

Pressure Distribution:-

It is interesting to note that  is nothing but Bernoulli function given by

2
q p
 h ……. (23)
2g g
Where q, g , h,and p denote velocity, acceleration due to gravity height above some horizontal plane of reference
and the pressure head. It is a well known fact that for an incompressible fluid the pressure head P is given by
p
p  constant
p0
where p is the pressure distribution.

Also if the motion of the fluid be steady and slow then the value of h can be taken without much loss of generality as
u for the flows (1), (4) and (7); v for the flows(9), (11) and (13) and w for (15), (17) and (19).Thus for the flow (7)
the pressure distribution is

1
P  K1   K 2  w  u   K3  u  v   K 4u  u  v  v  w  w  u   ……(24)
2  u  v  v  w w  u  

Similarly for the flow (19) taking C3  D3 we have

1
p  K3   K6  u  v   K 7  w  v   K8 w  u  v  v  w  w  u   …….(25)
2  u  v  v  w w  u  

Where Kn  n  1, 2,3, 4,5,6,7,8...... are constants.

Similarly the pressure distribution for other flows can be determined.

Vorticity of the Flow:-

It was shown by Ballah [3] that for a self-superposable flow, vorticity is constant along its stream lines. If T is a unit
tangent along a stream line.
 
Then T q  0 ……(26)

By equations (16) and (25) it can be readily shown that


T  2
 a2  wb2  w , 0,
 a2  u b2  u  

 4  a 2  w  b 2  w    a 2  u  b 2  u  4  a 2  w  b 2  w    a 2  u  b 2  u  
 

Hence, the vorticity of the flow (17) is constant along the curve represented by equation (27). Similarly, the curves
of constant velocity can also be found for other flows.

Irrotationality:-

Vorticity  for the flow (15) can be calculated as

 a 2

a 2


It is clear from equation (28) that flow (15) is not irrotational. For the flow (7)  0
Hence, the flow (7) isirrotational throughout.Similar conclusions can be drawn for the other flows discussed earlier.
