FLOW THROUGH VARIABLE AREA DUCTS
FLOW THROUGH VARIABLE AREA DUCTS As a gas is forced through a tube, the gas molecules are deflected by the walls of the tube. If the speed of the gas is much less than the speed of sound of the gas, the density of the gas remains constant and the velocity of the flow increases. However, as the speed of the flow approaches the speed of sound we must consider compressibility effects on the gas. The density of the gas varies from one location to the next. Considering flow through a tube, as shown in the figure, if the flow is very gradually compressed (area decreases) and then gradually expanded (area increases), the flow conditions return to their original values. We say that such a process is reversible. From a consideration of the second law of thermodynamics, a reversible flow maintains a constant value of entropy . Engineers call this type of flow an isentropicflow ; a combination of the Greek word " iso " (same) and entropy.
FLOW THROUGH VARIABLE AREA DUCTS
FLOW THROUGH VARIABLE AREA DUCTS The conservation of mass is a fundamental concept of physics. Within some problem domain, the amount of mass remains constant; mass is neither created or destroyed. The mass of any object is simply the volume that the object occupies times the density of the object. For a fluid (a liquid or a gas ) the density, volume, and shape of the object can all change within the domain with time and mass can move through the domain. The conservation of mass (continuity) tells us that the mass flow rate mdot through a tube is a constant and equal to the product of the density r , velocity V , and flow area A :
Conservation of mass
Conservation of mass Solid Mechanics The conservation of mass is a fundamental concept of physics along with the conservation of energy and the conservation of momentum . Within some problem domain, the amount of mass remains constant--mass is neither created nor destroyed. This seems quite obvious, as long as we are not talking about black holes or very exotic physics problems. The mass of any object can be determined by multiplying the volume of the object by the density of the object. When we move a solid object, as shown at the top of the slide, the object retains its shape, density, and volume. The mass of the object, therefore, remains a constant between state "a" and state "b." Fluid Statics In the center of the figure, we consider an amount of a static fluid , liquid or gas . If we change the fluid from some state "a" to another state "b" and allow it to come to rest, we find that, unlike a solid, a fluid may change its shape. The amount of fluid, however, remains the same. We can calculate the amount of fluid by multiplying the density times the volume. Since the mass remains constant, the product of the density and volume also remains constant. (If the density remains constant, the volume also remains constant.) The shape can change, but the mass remains the same. Fluid Dynamics Finally, at the bottom of the slide, we consider the changes for a fluid that is moving through our domain. There is no accumulation or depletion of mass, so mass is conserved within the domain. Since the fluid is moving, defining the amount of mass gets a little tricky. Let's consider an amount of fluid that passes through point "a" of our domain in some amount of time t . If the fluid passes through an area A at velocity V , we can define the volume Vol to be: Vol = A * V * t

54 Stagnation Properties Consider a fluid flowing into a diffuser at a velocity , temperature T , pressure P , and enthalpy h , etc. Here the ordinary properties T , P , h , etc. are called the static properties; that is, they are measured relative to the flow at the flow velocity. The diffuser is sufficiently long and the exit area is sufficiently large that the fluid is brought to rest (zero velocity) at the diffuser exit while no work or heat transfer is done. The resulting state is called the stagnation state. We apply the first law per unit mass for one entrance, one exit, and neglect the potential energies. Let the inlet state be unsubscripted and the exit or stagnation state have the subscript o.
55 Since the exit velocity, work, and heat transfer are zero, The term h o is called the stagnation enthalpy (some authors call this the total enthalpy). It is the enthalpy the fluid attains when brought to rest adiabatically while no work is done. If, in addition, the process is also reversible, the process is isentropic, and the inlet and exit entropies are equal. The stagnation enthalpy and entropy define the stagnation state and the isentropic stagnation pressure, P o . The actual stagnation pressure for irreversible flows will be somewhat less than the isentropic stagnation pressure as shown below.
