Bernoulli’s Equation
Bernoulli’s Equation One of the most interesting and important equations of fluid mechanics. It comes under the domain of fluid dynamics to be specific. Bernoulli’s equation is also sometimes treated as the conservation of energy principle. Its origin can be said as the integrated version of Euler’s equation. Taking about the dynamics of the fluid first let us talk about the forces that are acted on the fluid in general. Following are the forces that act but vary from case to case and are also dependent on the assumptions we consider during any derivation as well as our understanding. Gravity Force (Fg) Pressure Force (Fp) Viscous Force (Fv) Force due to compressibility (Fc) Force due to turbulence (Ft ) Surface Tension Force (Fs ) In this case, when we consider this force then we can call it Newton’s equation of Motion. In the case when all the forces except the surface tension force and compressibility forces are acted the resultant equation is termed as Reynold’s Equation. Now if we...
