How can I integrate variable velocity in fluid mechanics?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the integration of variable velocity in fluid mechanics, specifically focusing on linear momentum. Participants seek resources and references to better understand the integration process in this context.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation, Homework-related

Main Points Raised

  • One participant expresses difficulty in understanding how to integrate variable velocity in fluid mechanics and seeks resources.
  • Another participant recommends the book "Landau and Lifshitz vol. 6" as a useful reference for hydro.
  • A subsequent post reiterates the recommendation of "Landau and Lifshitz vol. 6."
  • Another participant suggests "Transport Phenomena" by Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot as an appropriate reference.
  • It is noted that the appropriateness of references may vary depending on the background of the student.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants provide various references without expressing disagreement, but there is no consensus on a single best resource for the integration of variable velocity.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not delve into specific methods of integration or the mathematical steps involved, leaving those aspects unresolved.

Who May Find This Useful

Students and individuals interested in fluid mechanics, particularly those seeking guidance on integrating variable velocity and understanding linear momentum.

TL;DR
Material: momentum in fluid mechanics
Do you know of any place where I can look up things about the momentum (linear momentum) in fluid mechanics? It's just that when I have a variable velocity and it has to be integrated, I don't quite understand how to do it.

I have looked for videos and things and I can't find that they are integrating.

A very nice book on hydro is Landau and Lifshitz vol. 6.

Appropriate references are going to vary by the background of the student.
