Spiritual Thought

• D&C 42:2
“If thou shalt ask, thou shalt receive
revelation upon revelation, knowledge upon
knowledge, that thou mayest know the mysteries
and peacable things – that which bringeth joy, that
which bringeth life eternal”
• D&C 46:18
“ To another is given the word of knowledge,
that all may be taught to be wise and to have
knowledge.”

Key Points

• Fluid Definition
– Sheer Stress
• Fluid Properties
1. Density
• Density variation with P,T
2. Viscosity (molecular interpretation, equation)
• Temperature/pressure effect on viscosity
• Newtonian fluids
• Non-Newtonian fluids
3. Kinematic Viscosity

What is a Fluid?

– Liquid or Gas
– “deforms continuously under applied shear
stress”

– Liquid: form a free surface


– Gases: fill volume, no free surface, mixing

Density

• mass/volume
– metric vs. British?
» 1000 kg/m3, 1.2 kg/m3
» 62.3 lbm/ft3, 0.0752 lbm/ft3

• Specific Gravity
• Specific Weight
• Industry Specific
– Degrees API, Brix Gravity, Degrees Baume, etc.

Density Changes

• Gas: Ideal Gas

• Liquid: nearly constant


– 4% variation in T  0 ˚C to 100 ˚C
– 1% variation in P  1 atm to 200 atm
Density of water versus temperature

Density changes w/ Pressure

• Coefficient of Compressibility

Density changes w/ Temperature

• Coefficient of Volume Expansion

Examples

Harry potter, when transmuting a tank of water (3m 3 at 1 atm) accidentally


shrinks the walls of the tank (while not changing the mass of water inside) to 2
m 3. How much additional pressure is exerted on the walls of the tank as a
result? (κ = 21,000 atm)

On his next attempt he uses less water (only 1 m 3) in the same tank, but he
increases the temperature by 300 ˚C. How much volume does the water now
take up? (β = 2.61x10-4/K)

Viscosity Changes with T & P

• Liquids: molecules are everywhere,


constantly getting in way of motion
– T up, molecules move faster…
• μ decreases
• gases: molecules are sparce, rarely hit
each other
– T up, molecules move faster…
• more frequent collisions, μ increases
• Pressure:
– Small effect for both
19

Kinematic Viscosity

• ν (units of m 2/s)

• Μ steam vs. water is factor 100 different


• Ρ sream vs. water is Factor 1000 different
