the Reynolds number;
3. Derive the three forms of head of fluid and
the total dynamic head (TDH) or external
head of pumps using Bernoulli’s Equation;
4. Determine the total dynamic head of a
pump; and
5. Solve problems involving the principles of
fluid flow.

1.1 PROPERTIES OF
FLUID

Example: Determine the percentage in the volume of


water if its pressure is increased by 30 000 psi.

Example:

Using Helmholtz equation, determine the viscosity of


water in poise and slug/ft-s for the temperature of
15.55oC. If the density of water at this temperature is
1 gm/cm3 determine the kinetic viscosity in both
units.

Using Grindley and Gibson’s equation,
determine the viscosity of air for 60oF. Specific
weight of air is 0.0765 lb/ft3. Find the kinematic
viscosity for both units.
