If a flow field is compressible, what can we say about the material derivative of density? What about if the flow field is incompressible?
Bernoulli’s principle and the continuity equation. Give alsoan example of their real-life application.
Consider steady, incompressible, two-dimensional flow due to a line source at the origin. Fluid is created at the origin and spreads out radially in all directions in the xy-plane. The net volume flow rate of created fluid per unit width is V·/L (into the page of Fig), where L is the width of the line source into the page in Fig Since mass must be conserved everywhere except at the origin (a singular point), the volume flow rate per unit width through a circle of any radius r must also be V·/L. If we (arbitrarily) specify stream function ? to be zero along the positive x-axis (? = 0), what is the value of ? along the positive y-axis (? = 90°)? What is the value of ? along the negative x-axis (? = 180°)?

The distance between the walls is h, and gravity acts in the negative z-direction (downward in the figure). There is no applied (forced) pressure driving the flow—the fluid falls by gravity alone. The pressure is constant everywhere in the flow field. For the fluid falling between two parallel vertical walls, generate an expression for the volume flow rate per unit width (V·/L) as a function of ?, ? , h, and g. Compare your result to that of the same fluid falling along one vertical wall with a free surface replacing the second wall, all else being equal.
