    What is a fluid ?

    Definitions of fluid on the Web:

    • Any substance that FLOWs, such as a liquid or gas.

    • A substance that is either a liquid or a gas

    • Fluids differ from solids in that they cannot resist changes intheir shape when acted upon by a force.

    • Anything that flows, either liquid or gas. Some solids can alsoexhibit fluid behavior over time.

    • any substance that cannot maintain its own shape

    Not directly relevant:

    • in cash or easily convertible to cash; "liquid (or fluid) assets"

    Fluid Definition

    A fluid cannot resist a shear stressby a static deformation.

    Fluid includes Liquids and Gases –

    Distinction between the two comes from the effect ofcohesive molecular forces.

    Fluid as a Continuum

    Before defining Fluid property like density, pressure at a “point” :

    Note:

    - Fluids are aggregations of molecules

    - Moving freely relative to each other (unlike a solid)

    Fluid density : mass / unit volume depends on elementalvolume

    Magma Viscosity

    Magmatic liquid viscosity depends on:

    composition (especially Si), temperature,time and pressure, each of which effectthe melt structure.

    It is possible to estimate the viscosity of a magmaticliquid at temperatures well above liquidustemperatures (that is, temperatures at which onlyliquid is present) from chemical compositions andempirical extrapolation of experimental data. Therange of temperatures of naturally flowing magmas,however, is near or within the crystallizationinterval, where stress-strain relationships are notlinear (that is, they are crystal-liquid mixtures andshow Bingham behavior). Under such conditions,the only way to predict viscosities is by analogy withsimilar compositions investigated experimentally.

    Magma viscosity

    Silica composition

    The strong dependence of viscosity of molten

    silicateson Si content can be illustrated by those of

    various Na-Si-O compounds:

    0.24:1:4

    1.52:1:3

    281:1:2.5

    10100:1:2

    (poise) Na:Si:O

    The decrease in viscosity can be attributed to a reduction

    in the proportion of framework silica tetrahedral, and

    therefore strong Si-O bonds in the magma.

    Temperature

    Temperatures of erupting magmas normally fallbetween 700° and 1200°C; lower values, observed in partly

    crystallized lavas, probably correspond to the limiting conditions under which magmas flow. Magmas do not

    crystallize instantaneously, but over an interval of temperature.

    Temperature has a strong influence on viscosity: as temperature increases viscosity decreases, an effect particularly

    evident in the behavior of lava flows. As lavas flow away from their source or vent, they lose heat by radiation and

    conduction, so that their viscosity steadily increases.For example:

    a) measured viscosity of a Mauna Loa flowincreased 2-fold over a 12-mile distance from vent;

     b) measured viscosity of a small flow fromMt. Etna increased 375-fold in a distance of about 1500 feet.

    The decrease in viscosity can be attributed toan increase in distance between cations and anions, and therefore, a decreasein Si-O bond

    strength.

    Magma viscosity

    Time

    At temperatures below the beginning of crystallization viscosity also increases with time. If magma is

    undisturbed at a constant temperature, its viscosity may continue to increase for many hours before it reaches asteady value. The viscosity increases with time results partly an increasing proportion of crystals (which raise the

    effective magma viscosityby their interference in melt flow), and partly from increasing orderingand

     polymerizing (linking) of the framework tetrahedra.

    Pressure

    The effect of pressure is relatively unknown, but viscosity appears to decrease with increasing

     pressure at least at temperatures above the liquidus. As pressure increases at constant temperature,

    the rate at which viscosity decreases is less in basaltic magma than that in andesitic magma. The

    viscosity decrease may be related to a change in the coordination number of Al from 4 to 6 in the

    melt, thereby reducing the number of framework-forming tetrahedra.

    Fluid density

    Liquids

    Water ~ 1000 kg/m3

    - Density in liquids is nearly constant- water density increases by 1% if the pressure is increased by a factor of 220 !- for a temperature increase of 100 K, density decreases by 5%

    - Magma - Magma densities range from about 2200 kg/m3 to 2800 kg/m3, illustrating a

    close density-melt composition relationship.Magma density decreases with increasing temperature and gas content. These densitiesincrease a few percent between liquid and crystalline states.

    Gases

    Air ~ 1.2 kg/m3

    - Density is highly variable

    - ideal gas law : p = ρRT (perfect gas law)

    - real gas: at low temperatures & high pressure – intermolecular forcesbecome important

    Atmosphere

    For the purpose of calculating the pressure and density of the atmosphere, we can

    regard air as a perfect gas obeying the perfect gas law equation. Substituting the

    perfect gas law into the differential equation of force balance, and integrating, we find an

    expression for the pressure:

    where p0 is the atmospheric pressure at the earth's surface, z=0. The density ρ may befound readily by dividing equation by RT(z).

    Note that the atmospheric absolute temperature T(z) must be known as a function

    of altitude in order to evaluate the integral.

    Approach

    Fluid flow analysis:

    • Control volume, or large-scale

    • Differential, or small-scale

    Flow must satisfy the three basic laws of mechanics:

    • Conservation of mass (continuity)

    • Conservation of Linear momentum (Newton’s second law)

    • Conservation of energy (first law of thermodynamics)

  • 8/21/2019 govardhan.pdf

    39/65

    System

    All the laws of mechanics are written for a system, which is defined as anarbitrary quantity of mass of fixed identity.

    Mass:(dmsys /dt) = 0

    Momentum: F = m (dV/dt)

    Energy:

    dQ/dt – dW/dt = dE/dt

    Difficult to follow a fluid of fixed identity. Easier to look at a specific region ….

    W hen the pipe flow is laminar, it can be shown (not here) that

     by recognizing that as R eynolds num ber 

    Therefore, frictional factor is a function of the Reynolds num ber 

    Similarly, for a turbulent flow , f = function of Reynolds number also

    . A nother parameter that influences the friction is the surface

    Losses in Pipe Flows

    Major Losses: due to friction, significant head loss is associated with the straight portions of

     pipe flows. This loss can be calculated using the Moody chart.

    Minor Losses: Additional components (valves, bends, tees, contractions, etc) in pipe flows also contribute to the total head loss of the system. Their contributions

    are generally termed minor losses.

    The head losses and pressure drops can be characterized by using the loss coefficient,

    K L, which is defined as

    One of the example of minor losses is the entrance flow loss. A typical flow pattern

    for flow entering a sharp-edged entrance is shown in the following page. A venacontracta region is formed at the inlet because the fluid can not turn a sharp corner.

    Flow separation and associated viscous effects will tend to decrease the flow energy;

    the phenomenon is fairly complicated. To simplify the analysis, a head loss and the

    associated loss coefficient are used in the extended Bernoulli’s equation to take intoconsideration this effect as described in the next page.

    Rainfall/Runoff Relationships

    Depending on the nature of precipitation, soil type,moisture history, etc., an ever-varying portion ofthe precipitation becomes runoff, moving viaoverland flow into stream channels

    • these stormflow events are typically recorded ashydrographs of discharge, or stream height(stage) vs. time

    • A hydrograph is a plot of discharge vs. time at anypoint of interest in a watershed, usually its outlet.Hydrographs are the ultimate measure of awatershed's response to precipitation events

    • for any storm, the initial precipitation does notcontribute directly to flow at the outlet, instead itis stored or absorbed. This is termed the initialabstraction (Fig. 2), precipitation that falls beforethe storm hydrograph begins.

    • direct runoff is that portion of the precipitationthat moves directly into the channel, appearing inthe hydrograph

    • losses represent storage of precipitation upstreamfrom the outlet after the storm hydrographbegins. Often lumped with abstraction.

    • excess precipitation runs off, and forms the stormhydrograph

    Idealized model: Hortonian Overland Flow• when precipitation exceeds infiltration capacity of soil,

    Hortonian overland flow results

    • infiltration rate declines exponentially as soil saturates• Horton model (1940) assumes uniform infiltration capacity for

    watershed

    Overland Flow (OF) actually unimportant in most watersheds(studies performed in 1960's)• often only 10% of a watershed regularly supplies OF during a

    storm event• in those areas, often only 10-30% of precip. becomes OF

    • vegetation also absorbs much precip.• well-vegetated watersheds in humid climate rarely show OF• arid zones (sparse vegetation) during high-intensity rainfall

    will show Hortonian OF

    Best model: variable source area

    • interflow (subsurface stormflow) is prime contributor to streamflow• OF is important near streams, where slopes become saturated by

    interflow• return flow (emergence of interflow) also important near streams
