    FUNDAMENTAL CONCEPTS

    Mechanics of Fluids and Hydraulics, these aresciences that deals with the laws of liquids and gases at restor in motion and of their practical applications. Fluidmechanics is based on the same fundamental principlesthat are employed in mechanics of solids. Hydraulics

    utilized experimental techniques to developed empiricalformulas which supplied answers to practical problems.

    DEFINITION OF A FLUID

    Deforms continuously when subjected to shear stress

    Three Branches of Fluid Mechanics

    1. Fluid Statics, is the study of the mechanics offluids at rest.

    2. Kinematics, deals with velocities and streamlineswithout considering forces or energy involved.

    3. Fluid Dynamics, is concerned with the relationsbetween velocities and accelerations and theforces exerted by or upon fluids in motion.

    1.1 DISTINCTIONS BETWEEN A GAS AND A LIQUID

    GAS

    1. Molecules are very far apart.

    2. Very compressible.3. Expand indefinitely when external pressure is removed.

    4. Can be held in equilibrium only when it is completely enclosed.

    5. No free surface

    LIQUID

    1. Molecules are little closer.

    2. Relatively incompressible.

    3. Cohesion between molecules holds them together except of its

    own vapor and does not expand indefinitely.

    4. Can be held in equilibrium both in an open and close space.

    5. May have a free surface (i.e a surface from which all pressure is

    removed, except that of its own vapor) .
