WHEN IT OCCURS
- moving fluids contact a solid boundary
Very important for real fluid flow problems, WHY ?
BECAUSE, it causes energy loss, resistance to flow
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
- different zones of fluid are flowing in different
velocitites
Flow
Solid Boundary
Flowing water in a pipe
IN LIQUIDS: the cohesive forces between the molecules
keep them in place and
the molecules form a lattice - like structure with
holes and the molecules seem to be in a cage, that
can be thought to be an energy barrier.
There is also some
molecular
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
A rate of strain is applied to a fluid and thus
caused to move. Resulting shear stress, t, helps a
molecule in overcoming the energy barrier. Hence,
the molecule moves into a next hole. The magnitude
of these energy barriers is related to viscosity.

layers

IN GASES:
The cohesive forces are weak as they are so
far apart. The cohesion does not play an important
role on the viscosity as in the liquids. But,
Here, there is continuous exchange of
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
molecules (momentum exchange).
Molecules of slower layer move to faster layers
causing a drag, while molecules moving the other
way exert an acceleration force.
This momentum exchange can lead to Newton
law of viscosity.
IN GASES: when the temperature increases, the
momentum exchange between the layers will
increase thus increasing viscosity, resistance to
shear
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
IN LIQUIDS: When the temperature increases, the
cohesive forces decreases
Reducing cohesive forces reduces shear stress and
so the viscosity.
Definition: Viscosity is the measure of fluid resistance (due
to cohesion and interaction between molecules)
to shear deformation
For Newtonian fluids (water, air) shear stress is
directly proportional to velocity gradient. The
coefficient of proportionality is called dynamic
viscosity or absolute viscosity

A molecule in the interior of a liquid is under


attractive forces that are equal in all
directions.
However, a molecule at the surface of a liquid
is acted on by a net inward cohesive force
that is perpendicular to the surface. Hence it
requires work to move the molecule to the
surface against this opposing force and
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
surface against this opposing force and
surface molecules have more energy than
interior ones

Due to the property of cohesion liquids
can resist small tensile force at the
interface between liquid and air.
Due to the imbalance of
molecular forces acting on a molecule
at free surface in a vertical pipe a
20102011 Fall Lecture Notes CVE240FLUID MECHANICS AUSCivil Engineering Department
curved surface called meniscus is
formed. The shape of this surface
depends on strength of cohesive and
adhesive forces.
Rise and fall of liquid in a capillary tube is
caused by surface tension. Capillarity
depends on the relative magnitudes of the
cohesion of the liquid to walls of the
containing vessel.

and solid are larger than the liquid's

A distinction is usually made between an adhesive
force, which acts to hold two separate bodies together
(or to stick one body to another) and

Definition: for a given temperature, the pressure at which

Liquid boils when local pressure = vapor pressure
To boil the liquids, either rise the temperature or reduce the
pressure.

In localized low-pressure zones, bubbles start growing and
they collapse when they move with flow into the regions of
higher pressure, this phenomenon is known as cavitation
which can result in a damage of a hydraulic structure or
