Starting from the following definition of stress-energy tensor for a perfect fluid in special relativity :
$${\displaystyle T^{\mu \nu }=\left(\rho+{\frac {p}{c^{2}}}\right)\,v^{\mu }v^{\nu }-p\,\eta ^{\mu \nu }\,}\quad(1)$$
with ##v^{\nu}=\dfrac{\text{d}x^{\nu}}{\text{d}\tau}## and
##V^{\nu}=\dfrac{\text{d}x^{\nu}}{\text{d}t}## (we have ##v^{\nu}=\gamma\,V^{\nu}##)
So, finally, I have to get the following relation :
$$\dfrac{\partial \vec{V}}{\partial t} + (\vec{V}.\vec{grad})\vec{V} = -\dfrac{1}{\gamma^2(\rho+\dfrac{p}{c^2})} \bigg(\vec{grad}\,p+\dfrac{\vec{V}}{c^2}\dfrac{\partial \rho}{\partial t}\bigg)\quad(2)$$
To get this relation, I must use the conservation of energy : ##\partial_{\mu}T^{\mu\nu}=0\quad(3)##
If someone could help me to find the equation ##(2)## from ##(1)## and ##(3)##, this would be nice to indicate the tricks to apply.
