13.2. Summary and Conclusion

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is Fluid Dynamics primarily about?

   Hint

   Think about fluid behavior.

2. 2.

   What is a Control Volume?

   Hint

   Relate to boundaries in fluid analysis.

3. 3.

   Fluid Dynamics primarily deals with which of the following?

   • Fluids at rest
   • Fluids in motion
   • Fluid properties only

   Hint

   Think about its definition.

4. 4.

   True or False: A System in fluid mechanics remains fixed in space.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider the nature of a system.

5. 5.

   Consider a control volume around a chimney releasing smoke. How does the Reynolds transport theorem apply here in terms of pressure and velocity changes?

   Hint

   Think about how fluid behavior changes inside and outside the chimney.
