2. FLUID PROPRIETIES
As it is known, matter and therefore fluid bodies as well, has a discrete and discontinuous structure, being made up of micro-particles (molecules, atoms, etc) that are in reciprocal interaction.
The mechanics of fluids studies phenomena
that take place at a macroscopic scale, the scale at which fluids behave as if matter were continuously distributed.
At the same time, fluids don’t have their
own shape so are easily deformed. A continuous medium is homogenous if at a
constant temperature and pressure, its density has only one value in all its points.
Lastly, a continuous homogenous medium is
isotropic as well if it has the same proprieties in any direction around a certain point of its mass.
In what follows we shall consider the fluid
as a continuous, deforming, homogeneous and isotropic medium.
We shall analyse some of basic physical
proprieties of the fluids.

2.1. Compressibility
Compressibility represents the property of fluids to modify their volume under the action of a variation of pressure. To evaluate quantitatively this property we use a physical value, called isothermal compressibility coefficient, β , that is defined by the relation:
,1 2
⎥⎦
⎤⎢⎣
⎡−=
Nm
dpdV
Vβ
(2.1)
in which dV represents the elementary variation of the initial volume, under the action of pressure variation dp.
The coefficient β is intrinsic positive; the minus sign that appears in relation (2.1) takes into consideration the fact that the volume and the pressure have reverse variations, namely dv/ dp < 0.
The reverse of the isothermal compressibility coefficient is called the elasticity modulus K and is given by the relation:

a) The compressibility of liquids
In the case of liquids, it has been
experimentally ascertained that the elasticity modulus K, and implicitly, the coefficient β , vary very little with respect to temperature (with approximately 10% in the interval C0600− ) and they are constant for variations of pressure within enough wide limits. In table (2.1) there are shown the values of these coefficients for various liquids at C00 and pressure 200≤p bars.

Glycerine 101055,2 −⋅ 91092,3 ⋅ Mercury 1010296,0 −⋅ 9107,33 ⋅ Therefore, in the case of liquids,
coefficient β may be considered constant. Consequently, we can integrate the
differential equation (2.2) from an initial state, characterised by volume 0V , pressure 0p and
density 0ρ , to a certain final state, where the
state parameters will have the value pV ,1 and ρ respectively; we shall successively get:

For gases the isothermal compressibility
coefficient depends very much on pressure. In the case of a perfect gas, the following relation describes the isothermal compressibility:
pV = cons.,
which, by subtraction, will be:
.VdV
pdp
−= (2.8)
By comparing this relation to (2.3) we may
write:
.1 pK ==β
(2.9)
It follows that, in the case of a perfect
gas, the elasticity modulus is equal to pressure. 2.2 Thermal dilatation Thermal dilatation represents the fluid
property to modify its volume under the action of
16
a variation of temperature. Qualitatively, this property is characterised by the volumetric coefficient of isobaric dilatation, defined by the relation:
,1dTdV
V⋅=α (2.10)
where dV represents the elementary variation of the initial volume V under the action of variation of temperature dT. Coefficient α is positive for all fluids, except for water, which registers maximum density (minimum specific volume) at C04 ; therefore, for water that has
Ct 04≤ we shall have .0<α
Generally,α varies very little with respect to temperature, therefore it can be considered constant. Under these circumstances, integrating the equation (2.10) between the limits 0V and V,
and respectively 0T and T, we get:
( ),ln 00

By dividing the relation (2.12) to the mass of the fluid ,00VVm ρρ == we get the function of state for an incompressible fluid:

In the case of a perfect gas the value of the coefficient is obtained by subtracting the

get:
,. dTTVdTconsdV =⋅= (2.14)
which, replaced into (2.10) enables us to write:
.1T
=α (2.15)
Thus, for the perfect gas, coefficient α is the reverse of the thermodynamic temperature.
2.3. Mobility
In the case of fluids, the molecular cohesion forces have very low values, but they aren’t rigorously nil.
At a macroscopic scale, this propriety can be rendered by the fact that two particles of fluid that are in contact, can be separated under the action of some very small external forces. At the same time, fluid particles can slide one near the other and have to overcome some relatively small tangent efforts.
As a result, from a practical point of view, fluids can develop only compression efforts.
In the case of a deformation at a constant volume, the compression efforts are rigorously nil and, as a result, the change in shape of the fluid requires the overcoming of the tangent efforts, which are very small. Therefore the mechanical work consumed from the exterior will be very small, in fact negligible.
We say that fluids have a high mobility, meaning that they have the property to take the
18
shape of the containers in which they are. Consequently we should stress that gases, because they don’t have their own volume, have a higher mobility than liquids (a gas inserted in a container takes both the shape and the volume of that container).
2.4 Viscosity
Viscosity is the property of the fluid to oppose to the relative movement of its particles.
As it has been shown, overcoming some small tangent efforts that aren’t yet rigorously nil makes this movement.
To qualitatively stress these efforts, we consider the unidimenssional flow of a liquid, which takes place in superposed layers, along a board situated in xOy plane (fig.2.1).
Fig.2.1.
Experimental measurements have shown that
velocity increases as we move away from the board in the direction of axis Oy, and it is nil in the near vicinity of the board. Graphically, the dependent ( )yfv = is represented by the curve Γ. This simple experiment stresses on two aspects, namely:
19
- the fluid adheres on the surface of the solid body with which it comes into contact;
- inside the fluid and at its contact with the solid surfaces, tangent efforts generate which determine variation in velocity. Thus, considering two layers of fluid, parallel to the plane xOy and that are at an elementary distance dy one from the other, we shall register a variation
in velocity dydydv
, due to the frictions
that arise between the two layers.
To determine the friction stress, Newton used the relation:
dydvητ = , (2.16)
that today bears his name. This relation that has been experimentally verified by Coulomb, Poisseuille and Petrov shows that the friction stress τ is proportional to the gradient of velocity. The proportionality factor η is called dynamic viscosity.
If we represent graphically the dependent ( )dydvf /=τ we shall get the line 1 (fig.2.2)
where ηθ =ty .
The fluids that observe the friction law (2.16) are called Newtonian fluids (water, air, etc). The dependent of the tangent effort to the gradient of
20
velocity is not a straight line (for example curve (2) in fig. 2.2), for a series of other fluids, generally those of organic nature. These fluids are globally called non-Newtonian fluids.
Fig.2.2
The measures for the dynamic viscosity are:
- in the international standard (SI):

Kgm
sN⋅
=⋅
= 2η (2.17)
- in the CGS system:
[ ]scm
gcm
sdyn⋅

The measure of dynamic viscosity in CGS
system is called “poise”, and has the symbol P. We can notice the existence of relation:
Psm
Kg 101 =⋅
. (2.19)
We can determine the dynamic viscosity of liquids with the help of Höppler’s viscometer, whose working principle is based on the proportionality of dynamic viscosity to the time in which a ball falls inside a slanting tube that contains the analysed liquid.
The kinematic viscosity of a fluid is the
ratio of dynamic viscosity and its density:
21
ρην = . (2.20)
The measures for kinematic viscosity are: - in the international system:
[ ]s

=ν . (2.22)
the latter bearing the name “stokes” (symbol ST):
sm

24

1011 −== . (2.23)
Irrespective of the type of viscometer used (Ubbelohde, Vogel-Ossag, etc) we can determine the kinematic viscosity by multiplying the time (expressed in seconds) in which a fixed volume of liquid flows through a calibrated capillary tube, under normal conditions, constant for that device.
In actual practice, the conventional viscosity of a fluid is often used; this value is determined by measuring the time in which a certain volume of fluids flows through a special device, the conditions being conventionally chosen. The magnitude of this value thus determined is expressed in conventional units. There are several conventional viscosities (i.e. Engler, Saybolt, Redwood etc) which differ from
22
one another both in the measurement conditions and in the measure units.
Thus, Engler conventional viscosity, expressed in Engler degrees [ ]E0 is the ratio between the flow time of 200 cubic cm of the analysed liquid at a given temperature and the flow time of a same volume of distilled water at a temperature of C020 , through an Engler viscometer under standard conditions.
The viscosity of a fluid depends to a great extent on its temperature. Generally, viscosity of liquids diminishes with the increase in temperature, while for gas the reverse phenomenon takes place.
The dependence of liquids viscosity on temperature can be determined by using Gutman and Simons’ relation:

We must underline the fact that viscosity is a property that becomes manifest only during the movement of liquids.
A fluid for which viscosity is rigorously
nil is called a perfect or ideal fluid. Fluids may be compressible ( )[ ]pρρ = or
incompressible ( ρ is constant with respect to pressure).
We should emphasise that the ideal
compressible fluid is analogous to the ideal (or perfect) gas, as defined in thermodynamics.
24
The movement of fluids may be uniform (velocity is constant), permanent v = v (x,y,z) or varied v = v (x,y,z,t).
25
3. EQUATIONS OF IDEAL FLUID MOTION
3.1 Euler’s equation We shall further study, for the most
general case, the movement state of a fluid through a volume τ that is situated in the fluid stream; we shall not take into consideration the interior frictions(i.e.viscosity), so we shall analyse the case of perfect (ideal) fluids that are on varied movement.
The volume τ is situated in an accelerated
system of axes, joint with this system. The equations, which describe the movement of the fluid, will be obtained by applying d’Alembert’s principle for the fluid that is moving through the volume τ .
The three categories of forces that act upon
the fluid that is moving through the volume τ ,bordered by the surface σ (fig.3.1), are:
Fig.3.1
- the mass forces mF ;
26
- the inertia forces iF ;
- the pressure forces pF (with an equivalent effect; these forces replace the action of the negligible fluid outside volume τ ).
According to d’Alembert’s principle, we shall get:
0=++ pim FFF . (3.1) Equation (3.1) represents in fact the
general vectorial form of Euler’s equations. Let’s establish the mathematical expressions
of those three categories of forces. If F is the mass unitary force
(acceleration) that acts upon the fluid in the volume τ , the mass elementary force that acts upon the mass τρ d , will be:
τρ dFFd m = , (3.2)
hence:
∫=τ
τρ dFFm . (3.3)
As the fluid velocity through the volume
τ is a vectorial function with respect to point and time: ( )trvv ,= , upon the mass τρd that is
moving with velocity v the elementary inertia will act:
27
τρ ddtvdFd i −= . (3.4)
So, the inertia will be:
∫−=τ
τρ ddtvdFi . (3.5)
If σd is a surface element upon which the
pressure p acts, and n - the versor of the exterior normal (Fig.3.1), the elementary force of pressure is:
σdnpFd p −= . (3.6)
Having in mind Gauss-Ostrogradski’s theorem,
the resultant of pressure forces will be:
τστσ
dpdnpFp ∫∫ ∇−=−= . (3.7)

3.2 Equation of continuity
This equation can be obtained by writing in two ways the variation in the unity of time for the mass of fluid that is in the control volume τ , bordered by the surface σ (fig.3.1). By splitting from the volume τ one element τd , and taking into consideration that the density is a scalar function of point and time, ( )tr,ρρ = , we can write the total mass of the volume τ :
∫=τ
τρdm . (3.12)
29
The variation of the total mass in the unity of time will be:
∫ ∂∂
=∂∂
τ
τρ dtt
m . (3.13)
The second form of writing the variation of
mass is obtained by examining the flow of the mass through surface σ that borders volumeτ .
Denoting by n the versor of the exterior normal to the area element σd , and by v the vector of the fluid velocity, the elementary mass of fluid that passes in the unity of time through the area element σd is:
σρ dvdM n−= . (3.14)
In the unity of time through the whole
surface σ will pass, the mass:
∫−=σ
σρ dvM n (3.15)
that is the sum of the inlet and outlet mass in volume τ , by crossing surface σ .
By equalling equations (3.13) and (3.15), it will result:

It follows that the inlet volume of non-

3.3. The equation of state From a thermodynamically point of view, the
state of a system can be determined by the direct measurement of some characteristic physical values, that make up the group of state parameters (e.g. pressure, volume, temperature, density etc.).
Among the state parameters of a thermodynamically system generally there are link relationships, explained by the laws of physics.
In the case of homogenous systems, there is
only one implicit relationship, which carries out the link among the three state parameters, in the form of:
( ) 0,, =TpF ρ . (3.24)
Adding to vectorial equations (3.10) and
(3.21) the equation of state, we get three equations with three unknowns: ( ) ( ) ( )trptrtrv ,,,,, ρ , that enable us solve the problems of motion and repose for the ideal fluids.
3.4. Bernoulli ‘s equation Bernoulli’s equation is obtained by
integrating Euler’s equation written under a different form (Euler – Lamb), that stresses the rotational or non-rotational nature of the ideal fluid (see the relation (1.25)).

represents the height at
which it would rise in vacuum a material point, vertically and upwards thrown, with an initial velocity v, equal to the velocity of the particle of liquid considered.
The piezometric load γpis the height of the
column of liquid corresponding to the pressure p of the particle of liquid.
The position load z represents the height at which the particle is with respect to an arbitrary chosen reference plane.
Bernoulli’s equation, as an equation of loads, may be expressed as follows: in the permanent regime of an ideal fluid, non-compressible, subjected to the action of some conservative forces, the sum of the kinetic,
35
piezometric and position loads remains constant along a streamline.

This energy measured to a horizontal reference plane N-N, arbitrarily chosen is called specific energy and it remains constant during the permanent movement of the ideal non-compressible fluid that is under the action of gravitational and pressure forces.
3.6. Bernoulli’s equation for the relative movement of ideal non-compressible fluid
Let’s consider the flow of an ideal non-
compressible fluid through the channel between two concentric pipes that revolve around an axis Oz with angular velocity ω (fig.3.3.).
37

In the equation (3.38) v is replaced by w,

4. FLUID STATICS The fluid statics – hydrostatics – is that
part of the mechanics of fluid which studies the repose conditions of the fluid as well as their action, during the repose state, on solid bodies with whom they come into contact.
Hydrostatics is identical for real and ideal
fluids, as viscosity becomes manifest only during motion. In hydrostatics the notion of time does no longer exist.
4.1 The fundamental equation of
hydrostatics If in Euler’s equation (3.9) we assume that
0=v , we get:
01=∇− pF
ρ. (4.1)
We multiply everywhere by rd :
01=∇− rdprdF
ρ. (4.2)
40
or
ρdpdzFdyFdxF zyx =++ . (4.3)
If the axis Oz of the system xOyx is vertical, upwards directed, then:
0== yx FF , ,gFz −= and equation (4.3) becomes:
0=+ρdpgdz . (4.4)
In the case of liquids ( ρ = cons.), by integrating equation (4.4) we get:
.constpgz =+ρ
(4.5)
or
.constpz =+γ
(4.6)
or
.constzp =+γ (4.7) Equation (4.7) is called the fundamental equation of hydrostatics.
41
If 0p is the pressure at the surface of water (in open tank the atmospheric pressure), pressure p, situated at a distance h from the surface, will be (fig.4.1):
Fig.4.1
102 zpzp γγ +=+ , (4.8)
hpp γ+= 0 . (4.9) p is called the absolute pressure in the
point 2, and hγ is the relative pressure. 4.2 Geometrical and physical
interpretation of the fundamental equation of hydrostatics (fig.4.2)
Fig.4.2
42
According to (4.6) we can write:
22
21

zp
+=+γγ
. (4.10)
In fig.4.2 we have:
γp - piezometric height corresponding to
the absolute hydrostatic pressure;
2,1z - the quotes to an arbitrary plane (position heights).
4.3 Pascal’s principle We rewrite the fundamental equation of
hydrostatics between two points 1 and 2.
2211 zpzp γγ +=+ . (4.11) Supposing that in point 1, the pressure
registers a variation pΔ , it becomes pp Δ+1 . In order that the equilibrium state shouldn’t be altered, for point 2 the same variation of pressure has to be registered.
222111 zppzpp γγ +Δ+=+Δ+ . (4.12) Hence:
21 pp Δ=Δ . (4.13)
43
Pascal’s principle: “Any pressure variation created in a certain
point in a non-compressible liquid in equilibrium, is transmitted with the same intensity to each point in the mass of this liquid.”
4.4 The principle of communicating
vessels Let us consider two communicating vessels
(fig.4.3) that contain two non-miscible liquids, which have specific weights 1γ and 2γ , respectively. Writing the equality of pressure in the points 1 and 2, situated in the same horizontal plane N – N that also contains the separation surface between the two liquids, we get:
220110 hphp γγ +=+ , (4.14) or else
1

, (4.15)
where 1h and 2h are the heights of the two liquid columns that, according to this relation, are in reverse proportion to the specific weights of the two liquids.
44
Fig.4.3
If ,21 γγ = then 21 hh = .
“ In two or more communicating vessels, that
contain the same liquid (homogenous and non-compressible), their free surfaces are on the same horizontal plane.”
4.5 Hydrostatic forces
The pressure force that acts upon a solid wall is determined by means of the relation:
∫=A
dAnpF , (4.16)
where dA is a surface element having the versor n , and p is the relative pressure of the fluid.
Let A be a vertical plane surface that limits a non-compressible fluid, with specific weight γ (fig.4.4).
45
Fig.4.4
46
Then the hydrostatic pressure force will be:
∫ ===A
yMAzzdAF γγγ 0 , (4.17)
where:
0z - the quote of the specific weight for surface A;
yM - the static moment of the surface A with respect to the axis Oy.
The application point of the pressure force
F is called pressure centre. It has the following co-ordinates:
y

γζ

γξ .
yI - the inertia moment of surface A with respect to the axis Oy;
yzI - the centrifugal moment of surface A with respect to axes Oy and Oz.
“ The hydrostatic pressure force that acts upon the bottom of a container does not depend on the quantity of liquid, but on the height of the liquid and on the section of the bottom of this container”.
47
The above statement represents the hydrostatic paradox and is illustrated in fig.4.5. The force that presses on the bottom of the three different shaped containers, is the same because the level of the liquid in the container is the same, and the surface of the bottom is the same.
Fig. 4.5
4.6 Archimedes’ principle
Let’s consider a solid body and further to simplify a cylinder, submerged in a liquid; we intend to compute the resultant of the pressure forces that act upon it (fig.4.6).
Fig.4.6

''' . (4.21)
This demonstration may easily be extended for a body of any shape.
“ An object submerged in a liquid is up thrust with an equal force with the weight of the displaced liquid”.
4.7. The floating of bodies A free body, partially submerged in a liquid
is called a floating body. The submerged part is called immerse part or
hull. The weight centre of the hull’s volume is
called the hull centre. The free surface of the liquid is called
floating plane. The crossing between the floating plane and
the floating body is called the floating surface.
49
Its weight centre is called floating centre, and its outline is called floating line or water line.
In order that the floating body be in
equilibrium, it is necessary that the sum of the forces that act upon it as well as the resultant moment should be nil.
Upon a floating body there can act two forces: the archimedean force and the weight force –also called displacement (D = mg) (fig.4.7)
Fig.4.7
As a result, a first condition to achieve
the equilibrium is:
VmgD γ== , (4.22) where m is the mass of the floating body, V is the volume of the hull, and γ is the specific weight of the liquid.
Furthermore, in order that the moment of the resultant should be nil these two forces must have the same straight line as support or, in other words, that the weight centre G should be found on the same vertical with the centre hull.
Equation (4.22) is called the equation of
flotability.
50
Stability is the ability of the floating body to return on the initial floating of equilibrium after the action of perturbatory forces that drew it out of that position has ceased.
With respect to a Cartesian system of axes Oxyz, having the plane xOy in the floating plane and axis Oz upwards directed (fig.4.8), the floating body has six degrees of freedom: three translations and three rotations. The rotation around Ox and Oy is most important.
These slantings are due to the actions of
waves or wind.
By definition, the rotation of the floating body thus produced as the volume of the hull to remain unchanged as a value – but which can vary in shape – is called isohull slanting.
Let 00 LL − be the plane of the initial floating. After the slanting of the isohull around a certain axis, the floating body will be on a floating 11 LL − .
If initially the centre of hull were situated in the point 0C after the isohull slating with an angle α , the centre of hull would move
51
further, in the sense of slanting, to a point
1C . This movement takes place due to the
alteration of the shape of the hull volume. The locus of the successive positions of the
centre of the hull for different isohull slantings around the same axis is called the curve of the centre of hull (trajectory C).
The curvature centre of the curve of the hull centres is called metacentre and its curvature radius is called metacentric radius.
For transversal slantings around the longitudinal axis Ox – we shall talk about a transversal metacentre M and about a transversal metacentric radius r (fig.4.8 a).
Fig.4.8 a, b
For longitudinal slantings – around the transversal axis Oy – the longitudinal metacentre will be denoted by μ , and the corresponding metacentric radius will be R (fig. 4.8 b).
52
Causing a transversal slanting to the floating body, isohull, with a small angle, α , the centre of hull will move to point 1C (fig.4.8 a). In this case, the force of flotability Vγ , normal on the slanting flotability 11 LL − , having as application point the point 1C won’t have the same support as the weight (displacement) of the floating body.
As a result, the two forces will make up a couple whose moment, rM , will be given by the relation:
αsinhDM r = , (4.23)
where
arh −= . (4.24)
is called metacentric height, and a is the distance on the vertical between the weight centre and centre of hull; denoting by Gz and Cz the quotes of these points to a horizontal reference plane, we shall have:
CG zza −= . (4.25)
The metacentric height, expressed by the relation (4.24) may be positive, negative or nil. We shall in turn analyse each of these cases. a) if h > 0 the metacentre will be above the
weight centre, and the moment rM , given by the relation (4.24) will also be positive. From fig.4.8.it can be noticed that, in this case, the moment rM will tend to return the floating
53
body to the initial floating 0L ; for this reason it is called restoring moment. In this case the floating of the body will be stable.
b) if h < 0, the metacentre is below the centre of weight (fig.4.9 a). It can be noticed that, in this case, the moment rM will be negative and will slant the floating body even further. As a result, it will be called moment of force tending to capsize, the floating of the body being unstable.
c) If h = 0, the metacentre and the centre of hull will superpose (fig.4.9 b). Consequently, the restoring moment will be nil, and the body will float in equilibrium on the slanting floating.
Fig.4.9 a, b In this case the floating is also unstable.
Thus, the stability conditions of the floating are: the metacentre should be placed above the weight centre, namely
54
.0>−= arh (4.26) According to (4.24) and (4.23), we may
write: ( ) gfr MMaDrDarDM +=−=−= ααα sinsinsin , (4.27)
where:
αsinrDM f = , (4.28)
is called stability moment of form, and:
αsinaDM g −= , (4.29) is called stability moment of weight.
As a result, on the basis of (4.27) we can consider the restoring moment as an algebraic sum of these two moments.
In the case of small longitudinal slantings, the above stated considerations are also valid, the restoring moment being in this case:
( ) αα sinsin aRDHDM r −== , (4.30) where
aRH −= . (4.31) represents the longitudinal metacentric height, and R is the longitudinal metacentric radius.

5.1 Plane potential motion
The motion of the fluid is called plane or bidimensional if all the particles that are found on the same perpendicular at an immobile plane, called director plane, move parallel with this plane, with equal velocities.
If the director plane coincides with xOy, then 0=zv .
A plane motion becomes unidimensional if components xv and yv of the velocity of the fluid depend only on a spatial co-ordinate.
For plane motion, the equation of the streamline will be:
yx vdy

The total of the points, in which the
potential function ϕ is constant, define the equipotential surfaces.
In the case of a potential plane motion:
ϕ - constant, equipotential lines of
velocity; ψ - constant, stream lines. Computing the circulation of velocity along
a certain outline, in the mass of fluid, between points A and B (fig.5.1), we get:
∫ ∫ ∫ −==∇==ΓB
A
B
AAB
B
A
drdrdv ϕϕϕϕ . (5.17)
59
Thus, the circulation of velocity doesn’t depend on the shape of the curve AB, but only on the values of the function ϕ in A and B. The circulation of velocity is nil along an equipotential line of velocity ( .constBA ==ϕϕ ).
If we compute the flow of liquid through the curve AB in the plane motion (in fact through the cylindrical surface with an outline AB and unitary breadth), we get (fig.5.1):
Fig.5.1
( )∫ ∫ −==−=B

AAByx ddxvdyvQ ψψψ11 . (5.18)
Thus, the flow that crosses a curve does not
depend on its shape, but only on the values of function ψ in the extreme points. The flow through a streamline is nil ( ).constBA ==ψψ .
A streamline crosses orthogonal on an
equipotential line of velocity. To demonstrate this propriety we shall take into consideration that the gradient of a scalar function F is normal on the level surface F = cons. As a result, vectors ψ∇ and ϕ∇ are normal on the streamlines and on the equipotential lines of velocity.

Computing their scalar product, we get:

5.2 Rectilinear and uniform motion
Let’s consider the complex potential:
( ) zazW = , (5.24) where a is a complex constant in the form of:
Kviva −= 0 , (5.25) with 0v and Kv real and constant positive.
62

We can easily check the orthogonality of the

complex velocity:
KvivadzdW

that enables us to determine the components of velocity in a certain point:

(5.32)
The vector velocity will have the modulus:
22
0 Kvvv += , (5.33) and will have with axis Ox, the angle 2θ , given by the relation (5.29).
We can conclude that the potential vector (5.25) is a rectilinear and uniform flow on a direction of angle 2θ with the abscissa axis.
The components of velocity can be also obtained from relations (5.20):

If we particularise (5.25), by assuming
0=kv , the potential (5.24) will take the form:
( ) zvzW 0= , (5.35) that represents a rectilinear and uniform motion on the direction of the axis Ox.
Analogically, assuming in (5.25) 00 =v , we get:
( ) zvizW K−= , (5.36) that is the potential vector of a rectilinear and uniform flow, of velocity Kv , on the direction of the axis Oy.
The motion described above will have a reverse sense if the corresponding expressions of the potential vector are taken with a reverse sign.
5.3 The source
Let’s consider the complex potential:
( ) zQzW ln2π
= , (5.37)
65
where Q is a real and positive constant.
Writing the variable θierz = , this complex potential becomes:

which, equalled with constants, give us the equations of equipotential and stream lines, in the form:

It can be noticed that the equipotential lines are concentric circles with the centre in the origin of the axes, and the streamlines are concurrent lines in this point (fig.5.4).

(5.42)
It can noticed that on the circle of radius
r = cons., the fluid velocity has a constant modulus, being co-linear with the vector radius of the considered point.
Such a plane potential motion in which the
flow takes place radially, in such a manner that along a circle of given radius velocity is constant as a modulus, is called a plane source.
Constant Q, which appears in the above -
written relations, is called the flow of the source.
The flow of the source through a circular
surface of radius r and unitary breadth will be: 12 rvrQ π= . (5.43)
Analogically, the complex potential of the
form:
( ) zQzW ln2π
−= , (5.44)
67
will represent a suction or a well because, in this case, the sense of the velocity is reversing, the fluid moving from the exterior to the origin (where it is being sucked).
If the source isn’t placed in the origin of the axes, but in a point 1O , of the real axis, of abscissa a± , then:
( ) ( )azQzW ±= ln2π
. (5.45)
5.4. The whirl
Let the complex potential be:
( ) zi
zW ln2πΓ
−= . (5.46)
where Γ is a positive and real constant, equal to the circulation of velocity along a closed outline, which surrounds the origin.
Proceeding in the same manner as for the previous case, we shall get the functions ϕ and ψ :

from which we can notice that the equipotential lines, of equation .const=θ are concurrent lines,

Thus, on a circle of given radius r, the
velocity is constant as a modulus, has the direction of the tangent to this circle in the considered point and is directed in the sense of angle increase.

The stream and equipotential lines are obtained by taking in relations (5.52), (5.53), CC == ψϕ , respectively. We notice that if in (5.53) we assume 0rr = , function ψ will become constant; therefore we can infer that the circle of radius
0r with the centre in the origin of the axes is a streamline (fig.5.8).
Admitting that this streamline is a solid border, we’ll be able to consider this motion described by the complex potential (5.50) as being the flow around a straight circular cylinder of radius 0r , having the breadth normal on the motion plane, infinite.
If we plot the other streamlines we shall get some asymmetric curves with respect to axis Ox (fig.5.6). On the inferior side of the circle of radius
0r , the velocity due to the axial stream is summed up with the velocity due to the whirl.
Fig.5.6
As a result, here we shall obtain smaller velocities, and the streamlines will be more rare.

The position of stagnant points can be determined provided that between these points the velocity of the fluid should be nil.
The flow without circulation around a
circular cylinder is the plane potential motion made up of an axial stream (directed along axis Ox) and a dipole of moment π2=M (whose source is at the left of suction).
Thus, this motion can be obtained

The other streamlines are symmetric curves with respect to axis Ox. Obviously, if we consider the circle of radius 0r , as a solid border, the motion can be seen as a flow of an axial stream around an infinitely long cylinder, normal on the motion plane.

Around this outline there flows a stream,

74
“ If a fluid of density ρ is draining around a body of circulation Γ and velocity in infinite ∞v , it will act upon the unit of length of the body with a force equal to the product
∞Γ vρ , normal on the direction of velocity in infinite called lift force (lift)”.
The sense of the lift is obtained by
rotating the vector of velocity from infinite with 090 in the reverse sense of circulation.

7. MOTION EQUATION OF THE REAL FLUID
7.1 Motion regimes of fluids
The motion of real fluids can be carried out under two regimes of different quality: laminar and turbulent.
These motion regimes were first emphasised by the English physicist in mechanics Osborne Reynolds in 1882, who made systematic experimental studies concerning the flow of water through glass conduits of diameter mmd 255÷= .
The experimental installation, which was then used, is schematically shown in fig.7.1.
The transparent conduit 1, with a very
accurate processed inlet, is supplied by tank 2, full of water, at a constant level.
Fig.71
80
The flow that passes the transparent conduit can be adjusted by means of tap 3, and measured with the help of graded pot 6.
In conduit 1, inside the water stream we insert, by means of a thin tube 4, a coloured liquid of the same density as water. The flow of coloured liquid, supplied by tank 5 may be adjusted by means of tap 7.
But slightly turning on tap 3, through conduit 1 a stream of water will pass at a certain flow and velocity.
If we turn on tap 7 as well, the coloured liquid inserted through the thin tube 4, engages itself in the flow in the shape of a rectilinear thread, parallel to the walls of conduit, leaving the impression that a straight line has been drawn inside the transparent conduit 1.
This regime of motion under which the fluid
flows in threads that don’t mix is called a laminar regime.
By slowly continuing to turn on tap 3, we can notice that for a certain flow velocity of water, the thread of liquid begins to undulate, and for higher velocities it begins to pulsate, which shows that vector velocity registers variations in time (pulsations).
For even higher velocities, the pulsations of the coloured thread of water increase their amplitude and, at a certain moment, it will tear, the particles of coloured liquid mixing with the mass of water that is flowing through conduit 1.
81
The regime of motion in which, due to pulsations of velocity, the particles of fluid mix is called a turbulent regime.
The shift from a laminar regime to the turbulent one, called a transition regime is characterised by a certain value of Reynold’s number *, called critical value ( crRe ).
* Number υvl
=Re , is the number that
defines the similarity criterion Reynolds.
82
For circular smooth conduits, the critical
value of Reynold’s number is 2320Re =cr . For values of Reynold’s number inferior to
the critical value ( crReRe < ), the motion of
liquid will be laminar, while for crReRe > , the flow regime will be turbulent.
7.2 Navier – Stokes’ equation
Navier – Stokes’ equation describes the motion of real (viscous) incompressible fluids in a laminar regime.
Unlike ideal fluids that are capable to develop only unitary compression efforts that are exclusively due to their pressure, real (viscous) fluids can develop normal or tangent supplementary viscosity efforts.
The expression of the tangent viscosity effort, defined by Newton (see chapter 2) is the following:
yv∂∂
=ητ . (7.1)
Newtonian liquids are capable to develop,
under a laminar regime, viscosity efforts σ and τ , that make-up the so-called tensor of the viscosity efforts, vT (in fig. 7.2, efforts manifest on an elementary parallelipipedic volume of fluid with the sides dzanddydx, ):

7.3 Bernoulli’s equation under the permanent regime of a thread of real fluid
Unlike the permanent motion of an ideal fluid, where its specific energy * remains constant along the thread of fluid and where, from one section to another, there takes place only the conversion of a part from the potential energy into kinetic energy, or the other way round, in permanent motion of the real fluid, its specific energy is no longer constant. It always decreases in the sense of the movement of the fluid.
A part of the fluid’s energy is converted into thermal energy, is irreversibly spent to overcome the resistance brought about by its viscosity.
Denoting this specific energy (load) by fh , Bernoulli’s equation becomes:

7.4 Laminar motion of fluids
7.4.1 Velocities distribution between two plane parallel boards of infinite length (fig.7.5).
To determine the velocity distribution
between two plane parallel boards of infinite length, we shall integrate the equation (7.15) under the following conditions:
Fig.7.5
a) velocity has only the direction of the
axis Ox:
;0,0 ==≠ zyx vvv (7.23)
from the equation of continuity 0=∇v , it results:

xvx (7.24)
therefore velocity does not vary along the axis Ox.
90
b) the movement is identically reproduced in
planes parallel to xOz:
0=∂∂

From (7.24) and (7.25) it results that ( )zvv xx = . c) the motion is permanent:
0=∂∂

d) we leave out the massic forces (the
horizontal conduit).
e) the fluid is incompressible.

Let’s consider a circular conduit, of radius
0r and length l, through which an incompressible fluid of density ρ and kinematic viscosity υ (fig.7.6) passes.
We report the conduit to a system of
cylindrical co-ordinates ( θandrx, ), the axis Ox, being the axis of the conduit. The movement being carried out on the direction of the axis, the velocity components will be:

On the other hand, taking into consideration the axial – symmetrical character of the motion, velocity will neither depend on variable θ .
As a result, for a permanent motion, it will only depend on variable r, that is ( )rvv = .
93
The distribution of velocities in the section of flow can be obtained by integrating the Navier-Stokes’ equations (7.14).
Noting by rii, and θi the versors of the three directions of the adopted system of cylindrical co-ordinates, we can write vector velocity:

In a point of the turbulent stream, the fluid velocity registered rapid variation, in one sense or the other, with respect to the mean velocity in section. The field of velocities has a complex structure, still unknown, being the object of numerous studies.
The variation of velocity with the time may be plotted as in fig.7.7.
Fig.7.7
A particular case of turbulent motion is the
quasipermanent motion (stationary on average). In this case, velocity, although varies in time, remains a constant means value.
In the turbulent motion we define the
following velocities:
a) instantaneous velocity ( )tzyxu ,,, ;
b) mean velocity

There are several theories that by
simplifying describe the turbulent motion:
a) Theory of mixing length (Prandtl), which admits that the impulse is kept constant.
b) Theory of whirl transports (Taylor)
where the rotor of velocity is presumed constant.
c) Karaman’s theory of turbulence, which
states that, except for the immediate vicinity of a wall, the mechanism of turbulence is independent from viscosity.
7.5.1 Coefficient λ in turbulent motion
Determination of load losses in the turbulent motion is an important problem in practice.
It had been experimentally established that in turbulent motion the pressure loss pΔ depends on the following factors: mean velocity on section, v , diameter of conduit, d , density ρ of the fluid and its kinematic viscosity υ , length l of the conduit and the absolute rugosity
*Δ of its interior walls; therefore:

As it can be seen from relation (7.60), in turbulent motion the coefficient of load loss λ may depend either on Reynolds number or on the relative rugosity of the conduit walls.
In its turbulent flow through the conduit, the fluid has a turbulent core, in which the process of mixing is decisive in report to the influence of viscosity and a laminar sub-layer, situated near the wall, in which the viscosity forces have a decisive role.
If we note by lδ the thickness of the laminar sub-layer, then we can classify conduits as follows:
- conduits with smooth walls; lδ<Δ ;
- conduits with rugous walls; lδ>Δ .
From (7.60) we notice that, unlike the laminar motion in turbulent motion λ is a
complex function of Re and dΔ.
It has been experimentally established that in the case of hydraulic smooth conduits, coefficient λ depends only on Reynolds’ number. Thus, Blasius, by processing the existent experimental material (in 1911), established for the smooth hydraulic conduits of circular section, the following empirical formula:

valid for 510Re000,4 << . Using Blasius’ relation in (7.59) we notice
that under this motion regime the load losses are proportional to velocity to 1,75th power.
101
Also for smooth conduits, but for higher Reynolds’ numbers ( )710Re000,3 << we can use Konakov’s relation:
( ) 25,1Relg8,1 −−=λ . (7.62)
In turbulent flow through conduits,

7.5.2 Nikuradze’s diagram On the basis of experiments made with
conduits of homogeneous different rugosity, which was achieved by sticking on the interior wall some grains of sand of the same diameter, Nikuradze has made up a diagram that represents the way coefficient λ varies, both for laminar and turbulent fields (fig.7.8).
Fig.7.8 We can notice that in the diagram appear
five areas in which variation of coefficient λ , distinctly differs.
Area I is a straight line which represents in logarithmic co-ordinates the variation:
Re64
=λ , (7.64)
104
corresponding to the laminar regime ( )2320Re < . On this line all the doted curves are superposed, which represents variation ( )Ref=λ for different relative rugosities 0/ rΔ .
Area II is the shift from laminar regime to the turbulent one which takes place for
( )2300Re4,3Relg ≅≅ .
Area III corresponds to the smooth hydraulic conduits. In this area coefficient λ can be determined with the help of Blasius relation (7.61), to which the straight line III a corresponds, called Blasius’ straight. Since the validity field of relation (7.61) is limited by
510Re = , for higher values of Reynolds’ number, we use Kanakov’s formula, to which curve III b corresponds. It is noticed that the smaller the relative rugosity is, the greater the variation field of Reynolds number, in which the smooth turbulent regime is maintained.
In area IV each discontinuous curve, which represents dependent ( )Ref=λ for different relative rugosities becomes horizontal, which emphasises the independence of λ on number Re. Therefore this area corresponds to the rugous turbulent regime, where λ is determined by (7.63).
It is noticed that in this case the losses
of load (7.59) are proportional to square velocity.
For this reason the rugous turbulent regime
is also called square regime.
105
Area V is characterised by the dependence of the coefficient both on Reynolds’ number and on the relative rugosity of the conduit.
It can be noticed that for areas IV and V, coefficient λ decreases with the decrease of relative rugosity.

8. FLOW THROUGH CIRCULAR CONDUITS
In this chapter we shall present the hydraulic calculus of conduits under pressure in a permanent regime. Conduits under pressure are in fact a hydraulic system designed to transport fluids between two points with different energetic loads. Conduits can be simple (made up of one or several sections of the same diameter or different diameters), or with branches, in this case, setting up networks of distribution. By the manner in which the outcoming of the fluid from the conduit is made, we distinguish between conduits with a free outcome, which discharge the fluid in the atmosphere (fig.8.1 a) and conduits with chocked outcoming (fig. 8.1 b).
Fig.8.1a, b
107
If we write Bernoulli’s equation for a stream of real liquid, between the free side of the liquid from the tank A and the end of the conduit, taking as a reference plane the horizontal plane N – N, we get:

which, for the case presented in fig.8.1 a, when
01 ≅v , 021 ppp == , 121 ==αα , hzz += 21 , becomes:
fhg
vh +=2
2
, (8.2)
where 2vv = is the mean velocity in the section of the conduit , and h is the load of the conduit.
In the analysed case shown in fig. 8.1 b, by introducing in equation (8.1) the relations
1022112011 ,,,,0 hppzhhzvvppv γ+=++===≅ and
121 ==αα , we shall get the expression (8.2).
From an energetic point of view, this relation shows that from the available specific potential energy (h), a part is transformed into specific kinetic energy ( gv 2/2 ) of the stream of fluid, which for the given conduit is lost at the outcoming in the atmosphere or in another volume. The other part ( )fh is used to overcome the hydraulic resistances (that arise due to the tangent efforts developed by the fluid in motion) and is lost because it is irreversibly transformed into heat.
108
Analysing the losses of load from the
conduit we shall divide them into two categories, writing the relation:
'''fff hhh += . (8.3)
The losses of load, denoted by fh ' are
brought about by the tangent efforts that are developed during the motion of the fluid along the length of the conduit ( l) and, for this reason, they are called losses of load distributed. These losses of load have been determined in paragraph 7.4.2, getting the relation (7.54) which we may write in the form:
dl
gvh f2
2' λ= , (8.4)
where the coefficient of losses of load, λ , called Darcy coefficient is determined by the relations shown in table 7.1 ; the manner of calculus being also shown in that paragraph. Generally, in practical cases, the values of coefficient λ vary in a domain that ranges between 04,002,0 ÷ .
Being proportional to the length of the conduit, the distributed losses of load are also called linear losses.
The second category of losses of load is represented by the local losses of load that are brought about by: local perturbation of the normal flow, the detachment of the stream from the wall, whirl setting up, intensifying of the turbulent mixture, etc; and arise in the area
109
where the conduit configuration is modified or at the meeting an obstacle detouring (inlet of the fluid in the conduit, flaring, contraction, bending and derivation of the stream, etc.).
The local losses of load are calculated with the help of a general formula, given by Weissbach:
gvh f 2
2'' ζ= , (8.5)
where ζ is the local loss of load coefficient that is determined for each local resistance (bends, valves, narrowing or enlargements of the flow section etc.).
Generally, coefficient ζ depends mainly on the geometric parameters of the considered element, as well as on some factors that characterise the motion, such as: the velocities distribution at the inlet of the fluid in the examined element, the flow regime, Reynolds’ number etc.
In practice, coefficient ζ is determined with respect to the type of the respective local resistance, using tables, monograms or empirical relations that are found in hydraulic books. Therefore, for curved bends of angle 090≤δ , coefficient ζ can be determined by using the relation:
0

ρζ ⎟⎟
⎠
⎞⎜⎜⎝
⎛+=
d, (8.6)
where ρandd are the diameter and curvature radius of the bend, respectively.
110
Coefficient ζ , corresponding to the loss of
load at the inlet in their conduit, depends mainly on the wall thickness of the conduit with respect to its diameter and on the way the conduit is attached to the tank. If the conduit is embedded at the level of the inferior wall of the tank, the losses of load that arise at the inlet in the conduit are equivalent with the losses of load in an exterior cylindrical nipple. For this case, 5.0≅ζ .
If on the route of the conduit there are
several local resistances, the total loss of fluid will be given by the arithmetic sum of the losses of load corresponding to each local resistance in turn, namely:
∑= gvh f 2
2'' ζ , (8.7)
Using relations (8.4) and (8.7), we get the
total loss of load of the conduit:

Sometimes in the calculus of enough long
conduits, the kinetic term ( )gv 2/2 and the local losses of load are negligible with respect to the linear losses of load.
In the case of such conduits, called long conduits, relation (8.2) takes the form:

With the help of the above written relations all problems concerning the computation of conduits under pressure can be solved. Generally, these problems are divided into three categories:
a) to determine the load of the conduit, when length, rugosity, flow and rugosity of interior walls of the conduit are known; b) to determine the optimal diameters when flow, length, rugosity of the walls of conduit as well as the admitted load are known; c) to determine the flow of liquid conveyed through the conduit when diameter, length, nature of the wall of conduit and its load are known.

9. HYDRODYNAMIC PROFILES
9.1 Geometric characteristics of hydrodynamic profiles
A hydrodynamic profile is a contour with an elongated shape with respect to the direction of stream, rounded at the front edge-called leading edge-and having a peak at the back edge, called trailing edge.
In what follows we
shall stress on some of the elements, which characterise the profile. a) The chord of the profile is defined as the straight line which joins the trailing edge A, with the point B, in which the circle
Fig.9.1
with the centre in A is tangent to the leading edge; the length of the chord will be noted by c (fig.9.1).
b) The thickness of the profile is measured on
the normal to the chord and is noted by e. This thickness varies along the chord and reaches a maximum in a section which is called
114
section of maximum thickness, situated at the distance ml to the leading edge.
c) Relative thickness, ε , and maximum relative thickness, mε , are defined by the relations:
ce
andce m
m == εε . (9.1)
d) The framework of a profile, or the line of
mean curvature, is the curve that joins the mean thickness points. The shape of the framework is an important geometric parameter and is linked to the curvature motion of the profile. From this point of view, profiles can be with simple curvature (fig.9.1) or with double curvature (9.2).
e) The arrow of the profile, f, is the maximum distance, measured on the normal to the chord, between the framework and the chord of the profile.
f) The extrados and intrados of the profile represent the upper and lower part of the profile, respectively.
By the geometric shape of the trailing edge, which plays an important part in the theory of profiles, we may distinguish among three categories of profiles:
Fig.9.2
- Jukovski profiles, profiles with a sharp edge, for which the tangents to the
115
trailing edge at extrados and intrados superpose (fig.9.3 a)
- Karman-Trefftz profiles, or profiles with a dihedral tip, for which the tangents to the extrados and the intrados make an angle δ in the trailing edge (fig.9.3 b), - Carafoli profiles, or profiles with the rounded tip, for which the trailing edge ends in a rounded contour, with a small curvature radius. (fig.9.3c).
It is generally studied the plane potential motion around the hydrodynamic profile, considered as the intersection of the complex plane of motion with a cylindrical object (called wing), normal on this plane and having an infinite length (called span).
In reality, wings have a
finite span and, from a geometrical point of view, they are characterised by the section of the wing, which, generally, alters
Fig.9.3 a, b, c the length of the wing and the shape of the wing in plane.
By the shape of the wing in plane, there are: rectangular wings (fig.9.4), trapezoidal wings (9.4 b), elliptical (9.4 c), and triangular wings (9.4 d).
116
Fig.9.4 a, b, c, d
An important parameter of the wing is the relative elongation defined by the relation:
Sl 2
=λ , (9.2)
where l and S represent the span and the surface of the wing, respectively.
In the particular case of rectangular wing, the length of the chord is constant 0cc = and relation (9.2) becomes:
0/ cl=λ , since:
0clS = . We can classify wings by their elongation
λ ; into:
- wings of infinite span, when 6>λ ; - wings of finite span, when 6<λ .
117
9.2 The flow of fluids around wings Kutta-Jukovski’s relation (5.62) can be
applied to any solid body in relative displacement with respect to a fluid.
It indicates that whenever there is a
circulation Γaround a body, there arises a lift force yR , whose value is determined, under the
same circumstances of environment ( ∞vandρ ), by the intensity of circulation.
To get a higher circulation around bodies, we can act in two ways:
- for geometrical symmetric bodies: they are asymmetrically placed with respect to
∞v direction or a rotational motion is induced (an infinitely long cylinder, sphere-Magnus effect).
- for asymmetrical bodies: study of shapes more proper to circulation.
On the basis of many theoretical and
experimental studies, we have come to designing wings with a high lift, called hydrodynamic profiles.
118
Fig.9.5
In fig.9.5, the arising of circulation around the hydrodynamic profile, alters the spectre of lines of rectilinear stream, of velocity ∞v as follows: on the extrados the sense of circulations coincides with that of motion and is seen as a supplement of velocity vΔ , and on the intrados velocity is decreased with vΔ .
According to Bernoulli’s law, the velocities asymmetry brings about the static pressures asymmetry (high pressure on the intrados, low pressure on the extrados) as well as the arising of lift force.
Applying Bernoulli’s relation between a
point at ∞ and a point on the profile, we get:

In fig. 9.6 it is shown the distribution of

Fig.9.6
The alteration of the incidence angle leads
to the shift in the pressures distribution. 9.3 Forces on the hydrodynamic
profiles
The forces which act upon hydrodynamic or aerodynamic profiles: lift, shape resistance, friction force or the force due to the detachment of the limit layer give a resultant R which decomposes by the direction of velocity in infinite and by a direction which is
• The angle between ∞v and the chord of the p
120
perpendicular on it (fig.9.7). Component xR is called resistance at advancement, and component
yR , lift force. They are usually written in the form:

where xC is called the coefficient of resistance

( lcS = for profiles of constant chord).

121
Force R can also decompose by the direction
of chord (component tR ) and by a direction
perpendicular on the chord (component nR ). These components may also be expressed with
the help of coefficients:
tC - the coefficient of tangent force and nC - the coefficient of normal force.
For a certain angle s,α is the distance between the leading edge and the pressure centre (the application point of hydrodynamic force).
The relation expresses the moment of the force R with respect to the leading edge:
αα sincos sRsRsRM xyn +== . (9.7)
Also, moment M can be expressed by an analytic form similar to that used for the components of hydrodynamic force:

122
The usage of coefficients xC , yC and nC is
often met in actual practice. Their variation is studied in different conditions and given in the form of tables and graphics of great importance for the calculus and design of systems, which deal with profiles.
Coefficients xC , yC and nC depend on the
following main elements: - the shape of the profile; - the span of the profile (finite or
infinite, finite of small span or great span);
- the type of the flow (Reynolds’ number); - rugosity of surfaces; - the angle of incidence.
For each shape of profile, at certain
different relative elongation, λ , (see paragraph 9.1), in the case of certain flow velocities (numbers Re variable), there are diagrams experimentally established ( ) ( ) ( )ααα myx CandCC , .
123
Fig.9.8 In fig. 9.8 there are plotted the diagrams
of coefficients for resistance at advancement and for lift force for a NACA 6412 profile, of relative elongation 3, at a number Re = 85,000.
Another type of diagram often used is the
polar profile, namely the function ( )xy CC at different slanting angles (fig.9.9). The polar allows us to define two characteristics of the profile:
- the floating or gliding coefficient:

9.4 Induced resistance in the case of
finite span profiles For wings of great span, considered infinite
∞=l , the motion around the profile is plane. Circulation Γ may be replaced by a whirl.
In reality, at
the tips of the wing, because of the difference in pressure, there arises a motion of fluid from intrados to extrados (9.10). The greater the weight of this motion, the
125
smaller the wing span is.
Fig. 9.10
As a consequence, circulation Γ is no longer constant; at the tips there is a minimum. (fig.9.11). This leads to an alteration of hydrodynamic parameters, through the arising of the so-called induced resistance.
Fig.9.11 In fig.9.12 the scheme of hydrodynamic
forces for the wing of finite span is plotted. Due to the arising of an induced velocity
iv , created by the free whirl, perpendicular on
the velocity in infinite ∞v , the resultant velocity becomes:
ivvv += ∞ . (9.13)
126
Fig.9.12
As a consequence there will appear an
induced incidence angle iα , which thus decreases the incidence angle α .
The alteration of direction and value of
velocity bring about the corresponding alteration of lift, which, as we have already shown, is perpendicular on the direction of stream velocity.
If yR is the lift of the infinite profile
and F is the lift under the circumstances of an induced velocity (perpendicular on the direction of velocity v), then:

The total resistance of the wing of infinite span is the sum between the resistance of wing of infinite span xR and the induced resistance iR .
9.5 Network profiles Several profiles that are in the stream of
fluid are in reciprocal influence, behaving in a different manner within the assembly, rather than solitary. Networks of profiles are often met in practice in the hydraulic or pneumatic units, propellers, etc.
To study the behaviour of profiles in network, let us consider a system made up of several identical profiles, of span l and control contour ABCD (fig.9.13). The pitch of the network is t.
Fig.9.13
128
Velocities v in points 1 and 2 have the components xv and yv , according to the system of
axes shown in the figure. Assuming that the density of fluid doesn’t alter in a significant way when passing through the network, 21 ρρ = ,
then 21 xx vv = .
Indeed, applying the equation of continuity:
