Conservation of Mass
In general, continuity equation cannot be used by
itself to solve for flow field, however it can be used to:
1. Determine if velocity field is incompressible
Lecture 27 2
Example DE1. Does the velocity field describe
incompressible flow?
V 4 xy i 2 y j sin x k
2
Lecture 27 3
Example DE2. A two‐dimensional incompressible flow has an
x‐component of velocity
u ( x, y ) 2sin( x) cos( y )
Find the y‐component of velocity.

Applications of Roll Cells
Convection Roll Cells between two plates. Lower plate is heated.
Lecture 27 7
Forces on Differential Control Volume
• Body force due to weight of CV:
dFbody g dx dy dz
Lecture 27 8
Navier‐Stokes Equation
• Reduction in the
(toothpaste) number of variables is
achieved by relating
(paint) shear stress to strain‐
rate tensor.
• For Newtonian fluid
(quicksand) with constant
properties

in cylindrical coordinates. If needed on the exam, you will be given the
cylindrical equations.
