Introduction

Differential Approach seek solution at every point (x1,x2,x3), i.e describe the detailed flow pattern at all points.

Integral approach for a Control Volume (CV) is interested in a finite region and it determines gross flow effects such as force or torque on a body or the total energy exchange. For this purpose, balances of incoming and outgoing flow rate mass, momentum and energy are made through this finite region. It gives very fast engineering answers, sometimes crude but useful.

System versus Control volume

In mechanics, system is a collection of matter of fixed identity (always the same atoms or fluid particles) which may move, flow and interact with its surroundings.

Hence, the mass is constant for a system, although it may continually change size and shape. This approach is very useful in statics and dynamics, in which the system can be isolated from its surrounding and its interaction with the surrounding can be analysed by using a free-body diagram.

In fluid dynamics, it is very hard to identify and follow a specific quantity of the fluid. Imagine a river and you have to follow a specific mass of water along the river.

Mostly, we are rather interested in determining forces on surfaces, for example on the surfaces of airplanes and cars. Hence, instead of system approach, we identify a specific volume in space (associated with our geometry of interest) and analyse the flow within, through or around this volume. This specific volume is called "Control Volume". This control volume can be fixed, moving or even deforming.

The control volume is a specific geometric entity independent of the flowing fluid. The matter within a control volume may change with time, and the mass may not remain constant.

Basic laws for a system

Conservation of mass

The mass of a system does not change:

Template:Center top dMdt|system=0 Template:Center bottom

where, M=mass(system)dm=V(system)ρdV

Newton's second law

Linear Momentum Equation

For a system moving relative to a inertial reference frame, the sum of all external forces acting on the system is equal to the time rate of change of linear momentum (P) of the system:


Template:Center top Fonsystem=dPdt|system or in tensor form Fi=dPidt|system Template:Center bottom where Template:Center top Pi(system)=mass(system)Uidm=V(system)UiρdV Template:Center bottomandTemplate:Center top U=Uxi+Uyj+Uzk=U1e1+U2e2+U3e3 Template:Center bottomwhere e1,e2ande3 are the corresponding unit vectors along positive x1,x2andx3 axis, i.e. x,yandz axis. This kind of subscript notation is a part of tensor notation which is explained at Fluid Mechanics for Mechanical Engineers/Scalar, Vectors and Tensors chapter.

Moment-of-Momentum Equation

For system rotating about an axis with an angular speed of ω, the sum of torque created by all external forces about the axis of rotation, is equal to the time rate of change of angular momentum (H) of the system:

Template:Center top Tonsystem=dHdt|system or in tensor form Tionsystem=dHidt|system Template:Center bottom where Template:Center top H=mass(system)r×Udm and T=r×F+Tshaft Template:Center bottom

The First law of Thermodynamics

Template:Center top dQheat added on system+dWwork done on system=dEsystem Template:Center bottom

in the rate form:

Template:Center top Q˙+W˙=dEdt|system Template:Center bottom

where Esystem=mass(system)edm=V(system)eρdV and e=uIntenral energy+UiUi2Kinetic energy+gzPotential energy

The Second law of Thermodynamics

The second law states that if heat is added to a system at a temperature T, the entropy of the system rises more than the heat added per unit temperature:

Template:Center top dSsystemdQT|system Template:Center bottom

The rate form of this law is:

Template:Center top dSdt|system1TQ˙system Template:Center bottom

where Ssystem=mass(system)sdm=V(system)sρdV

Relation of a system derivative to the control volume derivative

Consider a fire extinguisher

File:Fire extinguisher final 01.svg
Control Volume versus System

dMdt|system=0 whereas dMdt|cv<0

All basic laws are written for a system, i.e defined mass with fixed identity. We should rephrase these laws for a control volume. In other words, we would like to relate

dBdt|system to dBdt|cv

The variables appear in the physical laws (balance laws) of a system are:

  • Mass (M),
  • Momentum (Pi),
  • Energy (E),
  • Moment of momentum (Hi),
  • Entropy (S).

They are called extensive properties. Let B be any arbitrary extensive property. The corresponding intensive property b is the extensive property per unit mass:

Template:Center top Bsystem=mass(system)b dm=V(system)bρdV Template:Center bottom

Hence,

Template:Center top B=M,b=1

B=P,b=U

B=H, b=r×U

B=E, b=e

B=S, b=s Template:Center bottom

One dimensional Reynolds Transport Theorem

Consider a flow through a nozzle.

File:1D-RTT.svg
Flow through a nozzle used to derive the 1-D Reynolds transport theorem

If B is an extensive variable of the system.

Template:Center top Bsys(t)=Bcv(t) Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Bsys(t+Δt)=Bcv(t+Δt)BI(t+Δt)+BII(t+Δt) Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top ΔBsysΔt=Bsys(t+Δt)Bsys(t)Δt=Bcv(t+Δt)Bcv(t)Δt  BI(t+Δt)Δt + BII(t+Δt)Δt Template:Center bottom

The first term for Δt0

Template:Center top limΔt0Bcv(t+Δt)Bcv(t)Δt=Bcvt Template:Center bottom

BII(t+Δt) for Δt0

Template:Center top BII(t+Δt)=ρ2b2VII Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top BII(t+Δt)=ρ2b2A2l2=ρ2b2A2U2Δt Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Bout=ρ2b2A2U2Δt Template:Center bottom

Similarly

Template:Center top BI(t+Δt)=ρ1b1VI=ρ1b1A1U1Δt=Bin Template:Center bottom

Thus, for Δt0, the terms in the equality for the time derivative of the system are

Template:Center top ΔBsysΔtdBsysdt Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top BinΔt=B˙in Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top BoutΔt=B˙out Template:Center bottom

so that,

Template:Center top dBsysdt=Bcvt+B˙outB˙in Template:Center bottom

This is the equation of 1 dimensional Reynolds transport theorem (RTT).

The three terms on the RHS of RTT are:

1. The rate of change of B within CV, which indicates also the local unsteady effect.

2. The flow rate of B flowing out of the CS.

3. The flow rate of B flowing into the CS.

There can be more than one inlet and outlet.

File:CV-multi-inlet-outlet.svg
CV with multiple inlets and outlets

Three Dimensional Reynolds Transport Theorem

Hence, for a quite complex, unsteady, three dimensional situation, we need a more general form of RTT. Consider an arbitrary 3-D CV and the outward unit normal vector (n) defined at each point on the CS. The outflow and inflow flow rate of B across CS can be written as:

Template:Center top B˙in=CSindB˙in=CSinρbUndA Template:Center bottom

File:Flux-sign-through-CS.png
Inflow and outflow to the CV.

B˙in and B˙out are positive quantities. Therefore, the negative sign is introduced into B˙in, to compensate the negative value of Un.

Template:Center top dBsysdt=Bcvt+CSoutρbUndA+CSinρbUndA Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top dBsysdt=tcvρbdV+csρbUnflux of BdA Template:Center bottom

Since ρUndA=dm˙, RTT can be written as:

Template:Center top dBsysdt=Bcvt+CSbdm˙net flow rate of B across CS Template:Center bottom

Conservation of mass

B=M,b=1

Template:Center top dMsysdt=tcv1ρdV+cs1ρUndA=0 Template:Center bottom

i.e

Template:Center top tcvρdVrate of change of mass in CV+csρUnmass fluxdAnet mass flow rate through the CS=0 Template:Center bottom

Assume ρ = constant (incompressible) and uniform in the CV

Template:Center top 0=ρtcvdV+ρcsUndA Template:Center bottom

As V of CV is also constant, the time derivative drops out:

Template:Center top 0=ρcsUndAcsUndAvolume flow rate=0 Template:Center bottom

The net volume flow rate should be zero through the control surfaces.

Note that we did not assume a steady flow. This equation is valid for both steady and unsteady flows.

If the flow is steady,

Template:Center top 0=csρUndA Template:Center bottom

there is no-mass accumulation or deficit in the control volume, i.e. net  mass  flow rate is equal to zero.

Linear Momentum equation for inertial control volume (Newton's 2nd law of motion)

B=P, b=UTemplate:Center top dPsysdt=Fon system Template:Center bottomUsing RTT, the rate of change of momentum of the system can be related to that of CV as follows:Template:Center top dPsysdt=tcvUρdV+csUρUnmomentum fluxdAnet momentum flow rate across CS=Fon system Template:Center bottom

This equation states that the sum of all forces acting on a non-accelerating CV is equal to the sum of the net rate of change of momentum inside the CV and the net rate of momentum flux through the CS.

Force on the system is the sum of surface forces and body forces.

Template:Center top Fon system=FS+FB Template:Center bottom

The surface forces are mainly due to pressure, which is normal to the surface, and viscous stresses, which can be both normal or tangential to the surfaces.

Template:Center top Fpressure=APndA Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Fv.stresses=AτdA Template:Center bottom

The body forces can be due to gravity or magnetic field.

At the initial moment t

Template:Center top Fon system=Fon CV Template:Center bottom

i.e. in the component form:

Template:Center top FSi+FBi=tcvUiρdV+csUiρUjnjdA Template:Center bottom

Moment-of-momentum Equation

B=H, b=r×U

Net torque exerted on the system about the rotaional axis is equal to the rate of change of angular momentum of the system. Template:Center top Ti=dHidt|system Template:Center bottom

expanding both sides by using the RTT

Template:Center top Tshaft+r×Fs+CVr×gρdV=tcvr×UρdV+csr×UρUndA Template:Center bottom

where Fs is the surface force acting on the surfaces of the CV.

First Law of Thermodynamics

B=E,b=e

Template:Center top dEdtsystem=tcveρdV+cseρUndA Template:Center bottom

at the initial moment t, the following equality is valid:

Template:Center top dEdtsystem=[Q˙+W˙]system=[Q˙+W˙]cv Template:Center bottom

thus, the integral form of energy equation is:

Template:Center top [Q˙+W˙]cv=tcveρdV+cseρUndA Template:Center bottom

Second Law of Thermodynamics

B=S,b=s

Template:Center top dSdt|system1TQ˙system Template:Center bottom The left hand side of the inequality reads Template:Center top dSdt|system=tcvsρdV+cssρUndA Template:Center bottom

The right hand side of the above inequality reads

Template:Center top 1TQ˙system=1TQ˙CV=CS1T(Q˙A)dA Template:Center bottom

Hence the second law becomes:

Template:Center top tcvsρdV+cssρUndACS1T(Q˙A)dA Template:Center bottom

Note that (Q˙A) represents the local heat flux through the surfaces of the control volume.

Examples

Example 1: Conservation of mass for a stream tube

Consider the mass balance in a stream tube in a steady incompressible flow, by using the integral form of the conservation of mass equation.

File:Mass Balance for streamtube renew 02.svg
Mass balance for stream tube inside a laminar flow (example 1)

Let A1 and A2 be too small such that the velocities U at position 1 and 2 are uniform across A1 and A2.

When we write the conservation of mass equation in integral form:

Template:Center top tcvρdV+csρUndA=0 Template:Center bottom

We assume that;

1) In a steady flow volume of the stream tube, i.e. CV is constant, ( tcvdV = 0)

2) Density is constant and uniform in the CV (ρ1=ρ2=ρ:constant).

Hence

tcvρdV=0

When we rewrite the conservation of mass equation:

csρUndA=0

The first term is zero and the second term can be analyzed by decomposing the integration area. There are 3 types of the control surfaces :

CSI ,CSII and CSIII.

  • CSI : the surface area that the mass enters across.

U1=|U||n|cosθ

n and U are in the opposite directions. 90θ180and cosθ is always negative. That is, the sign of mass input is always negative.

  • CSII : the surface area from which the mass leaves.

U2=|U||n|cosθ

n and U are in the same directions. θ90and cosθ is always positive. That is, the sign of mass output is always positive.

  • CSIII : the lateral surfaces of the CV.

U3=|U||n|cosθ

n and U are perpendicular to each other . θ=90and cosθ is zero. That is, there is no flows.

Template:Center top CSIρUndA1+CSIIIρUndA3+CSIIρUndA2=0 Template:Center bottom

where the integration over CSIII is zero, because there is no flow across the streamtube. Thus,

Template:Center top ρU1A1+0+ρU2A2=0 Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top ρU1A1=ρU2A2U2=U1A1A2 Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top m˙1=m˙2 Template:Center bottom

Example 2: Conservation of mass with multiple inlets and outlets

Consider the steady flow of water through the device. The inlet and outlet areas are A1, A2 and A3 = A4.

File:Junction renew 01.svg
mass balance for a connector device (example 2)

The following parameters are known:

Mass flow out at 3 (m˙3).

Volume flow rate in through 4 (Q4).

Velocity at 1 along x1-direction U11, U1i=(U11,0,0) so that U11>0.

Find the flow velocity at section 2.Assume that the properties are uniform across the sections.

Template:Center top tcvρdV+csρUndA=0 Template:Center bottom

Where the first term is zero due to steady state conditions. At section 1:

A1ρU1n1dA=ρ|U11|A1 At section 3:

A3ρU3n3dA=ρ|U3|A3=m˙3

At section 4:

A4ρU4n4dA=ρ|U4|A4=ρQ4

Template:Center top A1ρU1n1dA+A2ρU2n2dA+A3ρU3n3dA+A4ρU4n4dA=0 Template:Center bottom

Hence, the velocity at section 2 can be calculated by

A2ρU2n2dA=[ρ|U11|A1+m˙3ρQ4]

For n2=(0,1)U21=0

ρU22A2=ρ|U11|A1m˙3+ρQ4

If the term on the right side is positive, U2 should be negative (outflow) and if it is negative, U2 should be positive (inflow).

Example 3: Momentum equation for a stream tube

Consider the steady flow through a stream tube. The velocity and density are uniform at the inlet and outlet of the fixed CV. Find an expression for the net force on the control volume.

Template:Center top Fi=FSi+FBi=tcvUiρ1dV+csUiρ2UjnjdA Template:Center bottom

where the derivative with respect to time is zero due to steady state conditions. (tcvUiρdV=0 ).

There are 3 types of the control surfaces :

CSI ,CSII and CSIII.

  • CSI : the surface area that the mass enters across.

U1=|U||n|cosθ (general formula)

n and U are in the opposite directions. 90θ180and cosθ is always negative. That is, the sign of mass input is always negative.

  • CSII : the surface area from which the mass leaves.

U2=|U||n|cosθ (general formula)

n and U are in the same directions. θ90and cosθ is always positive. That is, the sign of mass output is always positive.

  • CSIII : the lateral surfaces of the CV.

U3=|U||n|cosθ (general formula)

n and U are perpendicular to each other . θ=90and cosθ is zero. That is, there is no flows.(CSIIIU3iρ3U3jnjdA3,lateral =0 )

Example 4: Momentum equation

Water from a two dimensional stationary nozzle strikes to a plate. Assume that the flow is normal to the plate and in the jet velocity is steady and uniform. Determine the force on the plate in x1 direction.

U1=0 at 2 and 3 and U11=Ujet at 1.

Template:Center top Rs1=UjetρUjetAJet Template:Center bottom

The force which acts on the plate (action-reaction) is

K1=Rs1=U1ρU1AJet

It is also possible to solve the problem with CVII

Template:Center top FS1=paA+Rp1=Ujet2Ajetρ Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Rp1=paAUjet2AJetρ Template:Center bottom

Hence, the force exerted on the plate by the CV is

Template:Center top K1=Rp1 Template:Center bottomIn order to calculate the force exerted by the support on the plate to hold the plate, we need to look to the free body diagram of the plate:Template:Center top Fnet=0=K1paA+Rs1 Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Fnet=0=paA+Ujet2AρpaA+Rs1 Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Rs1=Ujet2Aρ Template:Center bottomIt means, the force of the support should be in the negative direction (to the left).

Example 5: Finding drag on a flat plate

Consider the plate exposed to uniform velocity. The flow is steady and incompressible. A boundary layer builds up on the plate. Determine the Drag force on the plate. Note that U1 can be approximated at L.

Assumptions:

  • The flow is steady; ( t = 0).
  • Density is constant (ρ is constant).

RTT for a CV moving with constant speed

It is possible that CV can move with constant velocity or arbitrary acceleration.

File:Relative-absolute-velocity-vector-relation.png
Relation between the absolute velocity vector U with the velocity of the moving reference frame attached to moving CV UCV and the relative velocity w.r.t. to the moving reference frame Ur

RTT is valid if the CV has no acceleration with respect to a fixed (inertial) reference frame. In other words, the standard form of RTT is then valid for a moving CV with constant velocity when:

1. All velocities are measured relative to the CV.

2. All time derivatives are measured relative to the CV.

Thus for a CV moving with UCV, the relative velocity w.r.t. to the reference frame attached to the moving CV is:

Ur=UUCV

Template:Center top dBsysdt=t(cvbρdV)+csbρUrndA Template:Center bottom

Example 6: Momentum equation for a CV moving with constant velocity

Consider the jet and the vane. Determine the force to be applied such that vane moves with a constant speed Uv in x1 direction.

File:Water jet.png
Jet hitting to a vane moving with constant speed (example 6)

Assume: steady flow, properties are uniform at 1 and 2, nobody forces, incompressible flow.

Note that for an inertial CV (static or moving with constant speed) RTT is valid, but velocities should be written with respect to the moving CV.

|U1|=|UjetUv|

from the continuity equation

0=csρUndA=|U1|ρA1+|U2|ρA2

ρ|U1|A1=ρ|U2|A2=m˙

for A1=A2, |U2|=|U1|

Thus, the component of U2 along x1 direction is:

U12=|U11|cosθ=(|Ujet||Uv|)cosθ

The momentum equation reads

Momentum Equation for CV with rectilinear acceleration

For an inertial CV the following transport equation for momentum holds:

Template:Center top F=tcvUρ dV+csUρUndA Template:Center bottom

However, not all CV are inertial: for example a rocket must accelerate if it is to get off the ground. A CV attached to the rocket has to be used and it is non-inertial.

File:Momentum equation.png
A system and coordinate axis attached to it moving with the same rectilinear acceleration

Denote an inertial reference frame with X1,X2,X3 and another reference frame moving with the CV, x1,x2,x3. Hence, x1,x2,x3 becomes the non-inertial frame of reference. Let x1,x2,x3reference frame move with a velocity and an acceleration Urf and arf, respectively. The velocity vector of a fluid particle w.r.t. to the inertial reference frame (w.r.t. to a ground observer) isUX=Ux+Urf where Ux is the velocity of the fluid particle w.r.t. non-inertial reference frame x1,x2,x3. Hence the time derivative of it is, Template:Center top dUXdt=dUxdt+dUrfdtdUXdtdUxdt Template:Center bottom

or,Template:Center top aX=ax+arfdPXdtdPxdt Template:Center bottom Above relationships imply that the velocity and the acceleration are not the same when considered from inertial and moving reference frames.

However, the Newton's second law states that:

Template:Center top F|system=dPXdt|system Template:Center bottom

For a control volume moving with Urf and arf, i.e. dUCVdt=dUrfdt, i.e. dUcvdt0, the time derivative of PX and Px are not equal i.e. RTT is not valid for an accelerating control volume and has to be modified.

To develop momentum equation for an accelerating CV, it is necessary to relate PX to Px.

Previously we have seen that in a non-inertial reference frame having rectilinear acceleration, i.e. (translational acceleration).

As solid propellant has no relative velocity in CV I and U2=Ue does not change in time at the nozzle and the mass in CV II does not change in time, this term can be neglected completely:

Template:Center top t[CVIU2ρdVU2=0=0+CVIIU2ρdV]=tCVIIU2ρdV=0(U2=Ue=cst)0 Template:Center bottom

D: Template:Center top csU2ρUxndA=U2csρUxndA=U2m˙=Uem˙ Template:Center bottom

Substitution of all the terms gives:

Template:Center top g(M0m˙t)arf2(M0m˙t)=Uem˙ Template:Center bottomTemplate:Center top arf2=Uem˙M0m˙t g Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top dVcvdt=arf2=Uem˙M0m˙t g Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Vcv(t)=0tUem˙M0m˙tdt0tgdt Template:Center bottom

Template:Center top Vcv(t)=Ueln(1m˙tM0)gt Template:Center bottom

The first term is always positive due to the natural logarithm ln . To overcome gravity one should have enough exit velocity, i.e. momentum. Moreover, it can be seen from this equation that if the fuel mass burned is a large fraction of the initial mass, the final rocket velocity can exceed the exit velocity of the fluid.

Normal and shear stress components on a differential surface area

Since Template:Center top W˙=FU Template:Center bottom The differential work done per unit time on a differential surface is: Template:Center top dW˙=dFU=σdAU Template:Center bottom where σ is the sum of normal stress σn and shearing stress σs on that surface, which is tangent to dA: Template:Center top σ=σn+σs Template:Center bottom Note that, although normal stress can be sum of the pressure and normal viscous stress, i.e. σn=pn+τn, the shear stress is only due to viscous stress,i.e. σs=τs.

The differential work done per unit time by the normal forces on a differential surface area over CS is Template:Center top dW˙n=dFnU=σndAU Template:Center bottom In many cases normal viscous stresses can be neglected and the normal stress exist only due to pressure: Template:Center top σn=pn Template:Center bottom

therefore the work done by normal forces per unit time over the whole CS becomes Template:Center top W˙normal=csσnUdA=cspnUdA Template:Center bottom Hence, the work done by the shear stress per unit time can be for the differential area and written as Template:Center top dW˙shear=σsdAUW˙shear=csσsUdA=csτsUdA Template:Center bottom

Inserting those into the main energy equation gives the following form of the energy equation, in which the work done by the normal force on CS due to pressure is interpreted as the net flow rate of enthalpy through CS:

For W˙shaft=0, W˙shear=0 and incompressible flow through a passive device which involves no mechanical work and no heat addition, the energy equation per unit mass reads :

Template:Center top p1ρ+|U12|2+gz1=p2ρ+|U22|2+gz2+(u2u1)Q˙m˙ Template:Center bottom

pρ+U22+gz: Mechanical energy per unit mass.

u2u1Q˙m˙: Irreversible conversion of mechanical energy to unwanted thermal energy (u2u1) and loss of energy via heat transfer (Q˙m˙). Note that, since the heat leaves the CV, it should be negative, i.e. Q˙<0. Hence this term is always positive.

In head form, the loss of energy through a device can be written as. Template:Center top hloss=[u2u1Q˙m˙]1g Template:Center bottom

i.e.

Template:Center top p1ρg+U122g+z1=p2ρg+U222g+z2+hloss Template:Center bottom

One can add the shaft work done by a pump or a turbine, in to that equation Template:Center top p1ρg+U122g+z1=p2ρg+U222g+z2+hlosshpump+hturbine Template:Center bottomNote that, pump work appears with a negative sign because it adds energy and turbine works appears with a positive sign because it extracts energy.

Bernoulli equation is clearly related to the steady flow energy equation for a stream line. This form of the Bernoulli equation, when the following conditions are satisfied:

1. Steady flow. Note that there is also an unsteady Bernoulli equation.

2. Incompressible flow. For example, in aerodynamics, flow can be accepted to be incompressible for Mach number (M=speed of flowspeed of sound) less than 0.3.

3. Frictionless flow, e.g. in the absence of solid walls.

4. Flow along a single streamline. Different streamline has a different constant.

5. No shaft work between 1 and 2.

6. No heat transfer between 1 and 2.
