One-dimensional Flow Many flows of great practical importance, such as those in pipes and channels, are treated as onedimensional flows. There is a single direction called the flow direction velocity components perpendicmar to this direction are either zero or considered unimportant. Variations of quantities such as velocity, pressure, density, and temperature are considered only in the flow direction. The fundamental consei vation equations of fluid mechanics are greatly simphfied for one-dimensional flows. A broader categoiy of one-dimensional flow is one where there is only one nonzero velocity component, which depends on only one coordinate direction, and this coordinate direction may or may not be the same as the flow direction.

This chapter is organized into two main parts. To give the reader an appreciation of real fluids, and the kinds of behaviors that it is hoped can be captured by CA models, the first part provides a mostly physical discussion of continuum fluid dynamics. The basic equations of fluid dynamics, the so-called Navier-Stokes equations, are derived, the Reynolds Number is defined and the different routes to turbulence are described. Part I also includes an important discussion of the role that conservation laws play in the kinetic theory approach to fluid dynamics, a role that will be exploited by the CA models introduced in Part II. 

We attempt here to describe the fundamental equations of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. The main emphasis, however, is on understanding the physical principles and on application of the theory to realistic problems. The state of the art in high-heat flux management schemes, pressure and temperature measurement, pressure drop and heat transfer in single-phase and two-phase micro-channels, design and fabrication of micro-channel heat sinks are discussed. 

This corresponds to a Hamiltonian system which is characterized by a weak oscillatory perturbation of the SHV streamfunction T r, ) —> Tfr, Q + HP, (r, ( ) x sin(fEt). The equations of fluid motion (4.4.4) are used to compute the inertial and viscous forces on particles placed in the flow. Newton s law of motion is then... 

The differential equations of fluid dynamics express conservation of mass, conse rvation of momentum, conservation of energy and an equation of state. For an adiabatic reversible process, viscosity and heat conduction processes are absent and the equations are 2.1.1 to 2.1.13, inclusive... 

As a first approximation to the motion of two spheres in a solvent (which can be regarded as a continuum), the spheres can be presumed to move about the solvent sufficiently slowly that the very much simplified Navier—Stokes equation of fluid flow is applicable. The application of a pressure gradient VP(r) in the fluid develops velocity gradients within the fluid, Vv(r). If another force F(r) is included in the fluid, this can generate a pressure gradient and further affect the velocity gradients. The Navier— Stokes equations [476] becomes... 

Conservation Laws. The fundamental conservation laws of physics can be used to obtain the basic equations of fluid motion, the equations of continuity (mass conservation), of flow (momentum conservation), of... 

The constitutive relations along with the conservation equations give the basic equations of fluid mechanics, which are a set of five nonlinear partial differential equations involving the seven variables, p, g,e, P, and T. Because five equations [Eqs. (1), (2), (3), (5), and (6)] cannot determine seven quantities, the equations are closed by expressing any two variables of the set (p,e,P,T) in terms of the other two remaining variables. This is done by using the assumption of local equilibrium and thermodynamic equations of state. 

The laws of conservation determine the equations of fluid motion which, however, contain a few unknown quantities discussed below. 

Let us find the resistance force acting on a spherical particle of radius a which moves slowly with velocity u in an incompressible viscoelastic fluid. It means that the Reynolds number of the problem is small, the convective terms are negligibly small, and the equations of fluid motion are... 

In order to study the spatial structure of seiches and to estimate their periods in the Black Sea, the corresponding sets of equations of fluid motion were numerically simulated. In [13] it was shown that the greatest period... 

A general, tensorially based description of the basis of the governing equations of fluid mechanics soon appeared in the Prentice-Hall series of texts for chemical engineers [4], and this material was later incorporated in several widely used undergraduate textbooks for chemical engineers [see 5, 6]. 

With representative values for A, Cp, and po with Vq 50 cm/s, equation (4) gives S 10 cm. Therefore 5 is large compared with a molecular mean free path (about 10 cm), and the continum equations of fluid dynamics are valid within the deflagration wave but 3 is small compared with typical dimensions of experimental equipment (for example, the diameter of the burner mouth, and hence the radius of curvature of the flame cone, for experiments with Bunsen-type burners), and laminar deflagration waves may be approximated as discontinuities in many experiments. Since equations (3) and (4) imply that 3 at constant temperature, experimental... 

Consideration will be restricted to dilute sprays, so that the statistical fluctuations in the flow, which are induced by the random motion of individual particles, may be neglected. Therefore, our objective is to obtain the hydrodynamic equations for the (local) average properties of the gas. These equations will be derived by phenomenological reasoning and will be shown to be equivalent to the ordinary equations of fluid dynamics, with suitably added source terms accounting for the average effect of the spray. For the sake of generality, allowance will be made for M different kinds of droplets and N different chemical species in the gas.
