1) What does the word kinematics mean?

Explain what the study of fluid kinematics


involves.
2) What is the Lagrangian description and Eulerian description of fluid motion?
a)How does eulerian descripton differ from the Lagrangian description.
b) Is the Lagrangian method of fluid flow analysis more similar to study of a
system or a control volume? Explain.
3) Define and derive Reynolds Transport Theorem.
4) Define following terms.
a) stream line
b) path line.
c) streak line.
d) stram tube.
e) time line.
5) Consider a cross-sectional slice through an array of heat exchanger tubes. For each
desired piece of information, choose which kind of flow visualization plot (vector plot
or contour plot) would be most appropriate, and explain why.
(a) The location of maximum fluid speed is to be visualized.
(b) Flow separation at the rear of the tubes is to be visualized.
(c) The temperature field throughout the plane is to bevisualized.
(d) The distribution of the vorticity component normal to theplane is to be visualized.

6) Derive generalized continuity equation in Cartesian coordinates in three dimensional


form.

between them.

rotationality.
10) write a short note on electrical anology for fluid flow.
