Question 1

What does the continuity equation ensure in fluid dynamics?

  • Mass is conserved
  • Mass can disappear
  • Flow is unpredictable

💡 Hint: Think about how fluids behave in a closed system.

Question 2

True or False: Stagnation points occur when fluid velocity is zero.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider where the flow meets a solid surface.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

In a given pipe network, the flows are A1=30 m³/s, A2=20 m³/s, and A3=Unknown. Compute the unknown flow rate at junction B.

💡 Hint: Apply the mass conservation principle and remember that inflows can equate outflows.

Question 2

Given a system with varying fluid densities, how would this impact the continuity equation? Explain and derive a modified equation.

💡 Hint: Consider how density changes can occur under varying pressures.
