Moment of momentum balance

Axiality of w is automatically achieved by the usual transformation ((c) in Rem. 4) of tensor W. Therefore the skew-symmetric tensors instead of axial vectors and outer product (see Rem. 16) may be used and we do it this way at the moment of momentum balances in the Sects. 3.3,4.3, cf. [7, 8, 14, 27]. Generalization of this Lemma to third-order tensors, made by M. Silhav, is published in Appendix of [28]. 

Such a balance of the moment of momentum (balance of angular moment) asserts that the time change of the moment of momentum is equal to torques acting on a considered part of the body (or the body itself). Here we eonfine to the simplest case of (mechanically) nonpolar materials where torques are moments of forces (i.e., their outer products of Rem. 16 with x - y) used in the preceding balance of momentum. ... 

Namely, taking the outer product of x — y with local momentum balance (3.78) in an arbitrary, even noninertial frame we have (we use (3.92) and the validity of moment of momentum balance (3.93) in any frame)... 

Postulation of moment of momentum balances for constituents and for mixture [11, 12, 15, 17, 22, 23, 50, 65] is sufficient (similarly as in Sect. 3.3, cf. Rem. 16 in Chap. 3) to be done in the inertial frame with the construction of moment against fixed point (y below) because our main results—local balances (4.70), (4.75)—are valid in any frame independently of y (for generalization, see Rem. 8). 

To find the local moment of momentum balance for constituent a we use here Gauss theorem (3.23) in surface integrals and by localization (validity of (4.65) is assumed for any volume V) we obtain... 

Inserting this result into (4.67) and subtracting (4.56) multiplied by (x—y)A we obtain the local partial moment of momentum balance for constituent a as a symmetry of the partial stress tensor... 

To obtain the local moment of momentum balance for the mixture, we use Gauss theorem in (4.71) and localization similarly as in (4.66). This result is... 

For our model of (mechanically) non-polar constituents and non-polar mixture (4.75) is a trivial consequence of (4.70) and therefore the moment of momentum balance for mixture is not needed in this non-polar model (indeed, (4.71) follows by summing (4.65) and using (4.63)). 

We can thus analyze the tangential flow in a swirhng flow field intuitively by carrying out moment-of-momentum balances. 

Stairmand (1949) calculated the velocity distribution in the cyclone from a moment-of-momentum balance, and then estimated the pressure drop as entrance and exit losses combined with the loss of static pressure in the swirl. In line with the discussion of cyclone pressure drop above, Stairmand stated that in practice little of the decrease in static pressure from the outer to the inner part of the vortex can be recovered in the vortex finder, so that this can be counted as lost. His model was worked out in a compact form by lozia and Leith (1989), who gave the following formulae for calculating cyclone pressure drop ... 

In this appendix we discuss one other model for vg the model of Meissner and Loffler (Meissner and Loffler, 1978 Mothes and Loffler, 1988). They performed an intuitively appealing moment-of-momentum balance in the cyclone separation space. Figure 4.B.1 illustrates the principle.

Finally, they obtain the tangential velocity inside the separation space v r) from the moment-of-momentum balance illustrated in Fig. 4.B.1, giving ... 

Macroscopic and Microscopic Balances Three postulates, regarded as laws of physics, are fundamental in fluid mechanics. These are conservation of mass, conservation of momentum, and con-servation of energy. In addition, two other postulates, conservation of moment of momentum (angular momentum) and the entropy inequality (second law of thermodynamics) have occasional use. The conservation principles may be applied either to material systems or to control volumes in space. Most often, control volumes are used. The control volumes may be either of finite or differential size, resulting in either algebraic or differential consei vation equations, respectively. These are often called macroscopic and microscopic balance equations. 

Balance equations for angular momentum, or moment of momentum, may also be written. They are used less frequently than the lin-... 

Balance equations for angular momentum, or moment of momentum, may also be written. They are used less frequently than the linear momentum equations. See Whitaker (Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Prentice-Hall, Englewood Cliffs, N.J., 1968, Krieger, Huntington, N.Y., 1981) or Shames (Mechanics of Fluids, 3d ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1992). 

Therefore this work concerns the formulation of a proposal for the thermochemistry of an immiscible mixture of reacting materials with microstructure in presence of diffusion a new form of the integral balance of moment of momentum appears in the theory, in which the presence of the microstructure is taken into account. Moreover, the density fields can no longer be regarded as determined by the deformation fields because chemical reactions are present,... 

If one performs the vector operation x x (equations of motion), the balance of rotational momentum or moment of momentum about an axis of rotation is obtained. It is this equation that forms the basis of design of rotating machinery such as centrifugal pumps and turbomachinery. 

Moreover the balance laws of moment of momentum are, by applying the conservation law of rotational momentum. 

If we denote by T, Cauchy s stress tensor of our material and by b, the density of body forces, then by Truesdell s third principle the balances of linear momentum and of moment of momentum for the whole mixture in local form turn out to be... 

There is one important question why are tectonic stresses changing relatively slowly as we can see in the field Definitely, there is a special mechanism of their redistribution typical for a wave energy transfer in a cataclastic medium. Its elements (blocks) can rotate. This adds the balance of the moment of momentum to the conventional impulse balance equations as well as spin (surplus) velocity of an individual block. The constitutive laws were suggested (Nikolaevskiy, 1996), that led to the Sin-Goidon equation with its soliton solution.

To formulate another main principle—the balance of moment of momentum—we introduce for some part of body (or body itself) with material volume V in actual configuration of the considered frame the moment of momentum or angular moment related to the point y as follows ... 

To obtain a simple form of the balance of moment of momentum, we confine its formulation to inertial frame with angular moment (3.88) having point y fixed here (although we use here the inertial frame fixed with distant stars, resulting formulations are valid in any inertial frame as will be shown at the end of this section). Again, the main reason for that is the nonobjectivity of x, y, v in (3.88), cf. (3.25), (3.38) generalization of this balance in the arbitrary frame will be discussed below but we note that the main local result—symmetry of stress tensor (3.93) below—is valid in the arbitrary frame. 

Therefore, the balance of moment of momentum or balance of angular momentum related to the fixed point y in aetual configuration in the inertial frame (fixed with distant stars) for (arbitrary part of) body with material volume V and its surface 9V is postulated as... 

Inserting it in (3.91) and using in this inertial reference configuration the balance of momentum (3.76) multiplied by (x — y) A from the left, we obtain the local balance of moment of momentum as...
