Lecture 11-3

This document discusses the conservation of energy in fluid mechanics, specifically focusing on simplified forms of the energy equation for steady, one-dimensional incompressible flow in a pipe. It presents various equations that relate energy, work, and flow characteristics, including the effects of pumps and turbines. The document concludes with a comparison to the Bernoulli equation under conditions of negligible losses and no shaft work.

The shaft work term is usually the result of a turbine or pump in the flow system. It
is therefore convenient to represent the shaft work term as
Ws = Wt − Wp Lecture 10 slide 7

where Wt =power delivered by a turbine
Wp = power supplied by a pump
Substituting eq 11.8 into eq 11.7 and divided by g results in

➢The sum of the terms on the left hand side of eq
represents the total energy, stated in energy per
unit weight of flowing liquid, plus the energy
supplied by a pump.
➢The sum of the terms on the right hand side
represents the total energy per unit weight at the
downstream section plus the energy given up to a
turbine and energy lost to friction between the
two sections

identical with the Bernoulli equation. Assumptions
