    What are the key principles of syphons in fluid dynamics?

    Does anyone know anything about syphons in fluid dynamics? Or maybe a site that i could find info? I need to find the velocity of the water as it leaves the pipe...

    Need help with Fluid Dynamics Problem

    Hi everyone I have a relatively simple fluid dynamics problem I need some help with: We have two cylinders L and R of crossectional areas A and 2A respectively. Initially, the level of water in X is H and Y is empty. At t = 0, the two cylinders are joined at the bottom by a tube of...

    Fluid dynamics - dissipation using cylindrical coordinates

    I have this flow field in cylindrical coordinates of which I would like to calculate the dissipation as a function of these coordinates. Now in my fluid dynamics notes I found the following expression(s) for the dissipation: 2 \mu (e_{ij} -\frac{1}{3} \Delta \delta _{ij} )^2 = 2 \mu (...

    A simple real-world fluid dynamics question:

    It's not so simple to me being that I have no background in fluid dynamics, but it seems like it would be fairly simple for most mechanical engineers; anyway: This is to help me with the design of my charge pipes in my custom turbocharger setup. Assuming a constant radius throughout, which...

    Fluid dynamics - flow profile and velocity

    Hi! Great website I just wished I had discovered it earlier. :smile: Here is my simple question and I would appreciate any tips or links where I can find more information. Problem: I would like to calculate the mean flow or velocity distribution along the central axis of a narrowing cone...

    Fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and anaerobic exothermic processes question

    I'm going to attempt to articulate my question with appropriate lucidity, but please let me know if I fail to do so. I am a vintner (a wine maker), so achieving a palatable batch of wine necessarily elicits some required understanding of chemistry and physics. I understand that the wine...

    Fluid dynamics of container of gas

    Given a container with a gas, assuming a constant internal/external pressure differential, with a hole of a particular diameter/area, what is formula to compute the rate at which the gas exits the hole. Assume we're talking ideal gas or air and anything else that I haven't given, but are...

    Current theorys in fluid dynamics for jet propulsion

    anyone know any theories being used for fluid dynamics? any formulas? I aint no physicist, I am just curious. Are there any developments today involving jet propulsion by going faster with only half the fuel? if that sounds right. any help would be appreciated
