CVE 240 – Fluid Mechanics
FLUID STATICS
![Page 2: CVE 240 – Fluid Mechanics FLUID STATICS. This section will study the forces generated by fluids at rest.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042615/56649cfd5503460f949cd5d5/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
FLUID STATICS
This section will study the forces generated by fluids at rest.

Introduce the concept of pressure;
Prove it has a unique value at any particular elevation;
Show how it varies with depth according to the hydrostatic equation;
Show how pressure can be expressed in terms of head of fluid.
This understanding of pressure will then be used to demonstrate methods of pressure measurement that will be useful later with fluid in motion and also to analyze the forces on submerges surface/structures.

Introduction
It is important not only to civil engineers but also naval architects….
The design of water storage tanks and dams
What are the forces created by water and how strong must a tank or a dam be to resist them?
The design ships and submarines
How deep can a submarine go before the pressure becomes too great and damage it?

• The term pressure is used to describe the force exerted by water on each square metre of some object submerged in water (i.e., force per unit area).

Pressure Intensity
The pressure (scalar quantity) at a point in a static fluid acts with the same magnitude in all directions.
pn= px= pz

Pressure Transmission
• Pascal Law: A pressure change produced at one point in a closed system will be transmitted throughout the entire system
Force = pressure x area [N = N/m2 x m2]
For 25 cm-diameter piston:
If air pressure is 600 kN/m2
what is the force liftingup the car?
Ans: 29.5 kN

Absolute pressure, Gage pressure and Vacuum
Absolute pressure = gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure

Example:
Which produces the larger pressure, a 0.3m diameter foot of an elephant of mass 5000kg or 0.01m diameter heel of a woman’s shoe when she has a mass of 60kg?
Which would you rather have standing on your foot!
