  • 1 - Mass Conservation and the Continuity Equation

  • Summary

    This chapter serves as an introduction to the concept of conservation and how conservation principles are used in fluid mechanics. The conservation principle is then applied to mass and an equation known as the continuity equation is developed. Various mathematical operations such as the dot product, the divergence, and the divergence theorem are introduced along the way. The continuity equation is discussed and the idea of an incompressible flow is introduced. Some examples using mass conservation are also given.

  • 6 - Nondimensionalization and Scaling

  • Justin W. Garvin, University of Iowa
  • Book:
    A Student's Guide to the Navier-Stokes Equations
    Published online:
    10 March 2023
    Print publication:
    09 February 2023, pp 182-219

  • Summary

    In this chapter, a concept known as scaling is introduced. Scaling (also known as nondimensionalization) is essentially a form of dimensional analysis. Dimensional analysis is a general term used to describe a means of analyzing a system based off the units of the problem (e.g. kilogram for mass, kelvin for temperature, meter for length, coulomb for electric change, etc.). The concepts of this chapter, while not entirely about the fluid equations per se, is arguably the most useful in understanding the various concepts of fluid mechanics. In addition, the concepts discussed within this chapter can be extended to other areas of physics, particularly areas that are heavily reliant on differential equations (which is most of physics and engineering).

  • 5 - The Energy Equation and a Discussion on Diffusion and Advection

  • Justin W. Garvin, University of Iowa
  • Book:
    A Student's Guide to the Navier-Stokes Equations
    Published online:
    10 March 2023
    Print publication:
    09 February 2023, pp 124-181

  • Summary

    In addition to the continuity equation, there is another very important equation that is often employed alongside the Navier–Stokes equations: the energy equation. The energy equation is required to fully describe compressible flows. This chapter guides the student through the development of the energy equation, which can be an intimidating equation. A discussion on diffusion and its interplay with advection is also included, leading to the idea of a boundary layer. The chapter ends with the addition of the energy equation in shear-driven and pressure-driven flows.
