Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery

  1. The 2-D flow with, velocity
    V̄ = (x + 2y + 2) î + (4 – y) ĵ is
    1. Compressible and irrotational
    2. Compressible and not irrotational
    3. In compressible and irrotational
    4. In compressible and not irrotational
Correct Option: D

v̄ = (x + 2y +2)î + (4 - y)ĵ
u =x + 2y + 2, v = 4 – y

δv
= 1,
δv
= - 1
δxδy

δv
+ 1,
δv
= 0
δxδy

hence in compressible.
Again, ω =
1
δv
-
δv
2δxδy

=
1
(0 - 2) = - 1.
2

hence not irrotational.
