When is Bernoulli’s equation applicable between any two points in a flow field?
When is Bernoulli’s equation applicable between any two points in a flow field? Correct Answer The flow is steady, incompressible and irrotalional
Explanation:
Bernoulli's principle states that the sum of pressure energy, kinetic energy, and potential energy per unit volume of an incompressible, non-viscous fluid in a streamlined irrotational flow remains constant along a streamline.
This means that in steady flow the sum of all forms of mechanical energy in a fluid along a streamline is the same at all points on that streamline.
Important Points
The following are the assumptions made in the derivation of Bernoulli's equation:
- The fluid is ideal i.e. viscosity is zero
- The flow is steady
- The flow is incompressible
- The flow is irrotational
