What is static pressure?
Think of a fluid that is not moving.
Define dynamic pressure.
Consider how velocity affects pressure.
What does static pressure measure?
Think about what it means when a fluid is not moving.
True or False: Stagnation pressure combines static pressure and dynamic pressure.
Recall the definitions of both pressures.
If a pipe system has a static pressure of 50 kPa and fluid flowing through it has a dynamic pressure of 20 kPa, calculate the stagnation pressure.
Use the relationship between static and dynamic pressure.
What could be the implications in a design if dynamic pressure is significantly ignored in a hydraulic system?
Think about how fluid dynamics influences design safety.
