FLUID MECHANICS
 Fluid mechanics
 Branch of engineering science that has to do with the behavior of fluids.
Follow up question: What are the three types of fluids?
Answer: liquid, gas, and vapor
 Branches of Fluid Mechanics
1. Fluid Statics (Fluids in equilibrium state of no shear stress)
2. Fluid Dynamics (Portions of the fluid are in motion relative to the other parts)
FLUID MECHANICS
 Kinds of Fluids
1. Incompressible
 Density is not affected by changes in temperature and pressure
2. Compressible
 Density varies appreciably with temperature and pressure
 Pressure Concept
 For a static fluid, the pressure at any point is independent of direction.
RHEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF
FLUIDS
 A rheogram is a plot of shear stress versus shear rate for a fluid in simple
shear flow.
 For a Newtonian fluid, the viscosity is independent of shear rate, and may
depend only on temperature and perhaps pressure. Gases and low
molecular weight liquids are generally Newtonian.
 All fluids for which the viscosity varies with shear rate are non-
Newtonian fluids.
