Today, we will :
E. The Linear Momentum Equation for a Control Volume (Chapter 6)
Recall from the RTT at the end of Chapter 4,
CV CS
Rate of change of linear momentum inside the control volume
Total force ( vector ) acting on the control volume Net rate of linear momentum flow out of the control volume
Use relative velocity Vr
here if we have a moving or deforming control volume
Example: Friction force in a pipe Given : Consider steady, laminar, incompressible, axisymmetric flow of a liquid in a pipe as sketched. At the inlet (1) there is a nice bell mouth, and the velocity is nearly uniform (except for a very thin boundary layer, not shown).
