4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define uniform flow in your own words.
Think about how velocity behaves in such conditions.
What does non-uniform flow indicate?
Consider how velocity varies in practical scenarios.
What characterizes uniform flow?
Consider how changes in velocity behave in uniform flow.
True or False: Non-uniform flow means velocities are the same at all points.
Reflect on what non-uniform means.
Consider a fluid flowing in a channel where the velocity is uniform at 12 m/s. If the cross-sectional area of the channel at one point is 2 m², calculate the flow rate. Now, determine the flow rate if the velocity decreases to 8 m/s at the same cross-section.
Remember the formula for flow rate.
Explain how the no-slip condition affects the design of a penstock in a hydroelectric dam. What design elements would you consider to account for non-uniform flow?
Think about how friction may alter the expected flow rates.
