What does the stream function help us visualize?
Think about how fluids move in different directions.
Define body force.
Consider gravity as an example of this type of force.
What is the primary use of the stream function in fluid dynamics?
Consider what helps engineers see how water flows.
Is a body force acting on the entire volume of a fluid? (True/False)
Remember examples like gravity acting on different volumes of water.
Given a rectangular fluid element subjected to uniform velocity, apply the stress tensor to calculate forces acting on the surfaces.
Consider calculating shear and normal stresses acting on each side.
Develop an equation for a fluid in motion that describes how different body forces affect its flow field.
Utilize the relation between forces and derivatives of velocity fields to describe motion.
