NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati DYMAMICS OF FLUID FLOW BASIC PLANE POTENTIAL FLOWS One of the major advantages of Laplace equation is the linearity of partial differential equation. Arithmetic operations (e.g. addition, subtraction etc.) can be performed for the solutions of these equations. It has lot of practical implications that leads to interesting solutions of complicated flow problems. Some of the basic potential flows are discussed below. Uniform Flow It is the simplest type of flow in which the streamlines are straight and parallel. The magnitude of the velocity is constant. Fig. 1 (a) and (b) shows the uniform flow in the positive x-direction. Mathematically, the flow represented in Fig. 1(a) can be expressed as, u U and v 0 y U (1) y U x (b) (a) x Fig. 1: Schematic of a uniform flow: (a) positive x-direction; (b) any arbitrary direction. In terms of velocity potential and stream function, we can write, U x U y 0 y 0 x (2) (3) 1 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati The above two equations can be integrated (constants of integration may be discarded as it does not affect the velocities in the flow) to yield, Ux and Uy (4) If the uniform flow is at an angle with respect to positive x-direction, then U x cos y sin U y cos x sin (5) Source and Sink Source and sink are the hypothetical terms used in fluid flow where it is assumed that the flow takes place radially (inward/outward) from origin. Consider a radial fluid flow outward from a line through origin as shown in Fig. 2. If m is the mass flow rate (per unit length) along the radial line from the origin, vr and v are the tangential and radial velocities, then by conservation of mass principle, we can write, m 2 r .vr constant r or vr m 2 r (6) constant Fig. 2: Streamline and equipotential lines for source. Since the flow is purely radial, so v 0 . By definition of velocity potential in streamline coordinate system, we have m , r 2 r 1 0 r (7) Integrating Eq. (7) and putting the constant of integration to zero, m ln r 2 (8) In this expression, if m is positive, then the flow will be radially outward and is treated as “source flow”. A “sink flow” will occur when the flow is towards origin ( m is 2 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati negative). The radial velocity becomes infinite at r 0 which is practically impossible. Thus, sources and sinks do not really exist in real flow fields rather some real flows can be approximated at points away from the origin by using sources and sinks. The stream function for the source can be defined such that 1 m 0, r r 2 r m 2 (9) It may be inferred from Eqs. (8) & (9) and Fig. 2 that the streamlines constant are the radial lines and the equipotential lines constant are concentric circles centered at the origin. Vortex Flow The streamline patterns in a vortex flow are the concentric circles and the equipotential lines are along the direction of radial lines (Fig. 3). constant constant r Fig. 3: Streamline and equipotential lines for vortex. Hence, the equation of motion for streamlines and velocity potentials can be written as, K and K ln r (10) By definition of streamlines and velocity potentials, we have, vr 1 1 0 , v 0, v ; vr r r r r So, 3 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 v Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati 1 K r r r (11) It indicates that the tangential velocity varies inversely with distance from the origin with becomes infinite at origin r 0 . A vortex motion may be ‘rotational or irrotational’ depending on the orientation of fluid element in the flow field. The irrotational vortex will occur when the fluid element does not rotate about its own axis and is not decided by the path followed by the element. The irrotational vortex is also called as “free vortex” and is governed by Eq. (10). In case of rotational vortex (also referred to “forced vortex”) the fluid element is artificially rotated with certain angular velocity about its axis. So, the constant K in Eq. (10) is replaced by . A “combined vortex” may be defined as a forced vortex with central core and free vortex behavior outside the core. Mathematically, it is written as, v r r r0 K r r r0 v (12) where r0 corresponds to the radius of the central core. Circulation A vortex motion is mathematically associated with a term called ‘circulation” which is defined as the line integral of the tangential component of the velocity taken around a closed curve in the flow field. It is expressed as, V .ds (13) C where the integration is performed around any arbitrary closed curve C , V is the velocity vector and ds is the differential length along the curve as shown in Fig. 4. For irrotational flow, V so that V .ds .ds d (14) Therefore, C d 0 (15) 4 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati Any arbitrary curve C V ds Fig. 4: Circulation around a closed curve C . In general, the ‘circulation’ is zero for irrortational flow. However, it is not true in case of ‘free vortex’ defined by K (Eq. 11) where the circulation around a circular path can be represented by, 2 Kd 2 K so that K 0 2 (16) Now, the velocity potential and stream function for free vortex can be expressed in terms of circulation as, 2 and ln r 2 (17) Doublet The source and sink of equal strength located along same axis can be combined to form another basic flow known as “doublet” (Fig. 5). The combined stream function for the pair can be written as, m 1 2 2 y (18) P r r r x a source a sink Fig. 5: Schematic representation of a doublet. It follows from Eq. (18) that 5 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati tan 1 tan 2 2 tan tan 1 2 1 tan 1 tan 2 m (19) From Fig. 5, we get, tan 1 r sin , r cos a tan 2 r sin r cos a (20) Now, Eq. (19) can be simplified as, 2 tan m m 2ar sin 2ar sin or tan 1 2 2 2 2 2 r a r a 2ar sin For small angles, tan 1 2 2 r a (21) 2ar sin , so from Eq. (21) 2 2 r a mar sin r 2 a2 (22) In Eq. (22), if a 0 and m keeping the product ma constant, then r 1 2 r a r 2 Hence, where K ma K sin r (23) is called the strength of doublet. Thus, a doublet is formed as a source and sink of equal strength approach one another while increasing their strength. The stream lines are governed by Eq. (23) and the corresponding velocity potential is, K cos r (24) 6 NPTEL Course Developer for Fluid Mechanics Module 04; Lecture 29 Dr. Niranjan Sahoo IIT-Guwahati Example 1 The tangential velocity variation of velocity in a washbasin is given by, V c .
