Ideal Fluids
Fluid dynamics is very complicated in general (turbulence,
vortices, etc.)
Consider the simplest case first: the Ideal Fluid
no “viscosity” - no flow resistance (no internal friction)
incompressible - density constant in space and time
l Airplane wing
ç shape leads to lower pressure on top of wing
ç faster flow lower pressure lift
» air moves downward at downstream edge wing
moves up
“Atomizer”
moving air ‘sweeps’ air away from top of tube
pressure is lowered inside the tube
air pressure inside the jar drives liquid up into tube
y2 - y1 = h

Example
Fluid dynamics
l A siphon is used to drain water C
from a tank (beside). The siphon
has a uniform diameter. Assume
steady flow without friction, and y
h=1.00 m. You want to find the O A
speed v of the outflow at the end v
of the siphon, and the maximum h
possible height y above the water
surface. B
l Use the 5 step method
ç Draw a diagram that includes all the relevant quantities for this
problem. What quantities do you need to find v and ymax ?
ç Solving for v
l Note on approximation
ç Same as saying C
