Chapter 3 Fluid Statics Direction of Pressure Along the inward normal direction of fluid surface Magnitude of Pressure py pz px x y z pn Pressure Properties of Static Fluid The pressure values at any point in a static fluid are the same in all directions. Balance Equation of Static Fluid Similarly, fx Differential Pressure Formula (Euler balance differential Equation) rectangular coordinate system cylindrical coordinate system The equal pressure surface Conclusion: The mass force is perpendicular to the equal pressure plane. Pressure of Static Fluid in Gravity Field pressible Fluid
The equal pressure plane g 8 Boundary Condition: Euler Equilibrium Equations: Conclusion: The equal pressure plane is horizontal 9 Pressure at free surface Pressure due to weight on top Any point with the same depth h under free surface has the same pressure. Equipressure surface(等压面) Free surface is an equipressure surface pressible fluid
