Attached are the handwritten notes, collected during lectures by Dr. Rusak. They are mostly an exercise in wrote just as brainless is and attacked for completeness.
Lecture 1
Fluid mechanics is a topic in classical physics of fluid is a substance gas or liquid where intermolecular forces are medium to week and there's a significant random movement of molecules and disorder in the arrangement
Continuum hypothesis a fluid is modeled as a Continuum or material that is exhibiting no structure however small is divided
$\lambda$ is the mean free path
the mean free path is a distance between molecular collisions 10-7 M for air at STP greater than a meter at the edge of the atmosphere 10 -10 m in water liquid
Knudsen number
$\text{Kn} = \frac{\lambda}{L} << 1$
but L characteristic length of Interest much greater than Lambda Kn = lambda/L <<< 1 Collision between thermal equilibrium tau is less than 10 to the -8 second and air at STP free continuing Behavior how is much less than the time of Interest which we measure
Is important to recognize that for very small distances approximately within an order of magnitude of the mean free path of the situation at hand
density as a function control volume $\rho = \lim_{\Delta V\rightarrow min} \frac{\Delta m}{\Delta Vol}$
specific volume $ v = 1/\rho$
Time Space Scale Diagram
Lecture 2
To find the pressure of a hydrostatic fluid look at the unit tetrahedra each of the minor faces has a force orthogonal to eachother. The normal force balancing has to be the balaning them allso that the pressure is the force pre unit area of some arbitrary are
Inreality there are viscous effects but are very small for most slightly viscous fluids so the viscous component can usually be neglected
Temperature of a Fluid Element
Definition
Average kinetic energy
k = 1.38\timex 10^{-26}J/K
Specific properties
internal energy :$du = c_vdT - [T(\frac{\partial p}{\partial T}-p)]\frac{d\rho}{\rho^2}$
enthalpy: $h = u + \frac{P}{\rho}$ or $dh=du+d(p/\rho)$
entropy: $Tds = cVdT - (\frac{\partial P}{\partial T}){cost. \rho}\frac{d\rho}{\rho^2}$ leads to $Tds = dh - \frac{d\rho}{\rho}$ or the gibbs eqn
simple compressible fluid: any two properties define the rest $P = f(\rho,T)$ but that is not the only choice. Just need to link the fluid to the critical point
Phase diagram: solid liquid vapor regions
Critical point $(P_c ,\rho_c, T_c)$ is the location where first and second partials of pressure with respect to density for constant temperature is 0
Liquid: high first derivative so we can usually hold \rho constant rate of temperature is not necessarily high tho
Gas vapor is moderate so that small changes in density create comporable changes in presssure
Reduction of Gasses wrt Critical Point
Carried out on the variable $(\cdot)$ by dividing by the corresponding $(\cdot)_c$ so that $(\cdot)_R = (\cdot)/(\cdot)_c$. for $P,\rho = 1/\mathcal{V},T$ and the compressibility factor $Z = \frac { P } { \rho RT}$ where $R = \mathcal{R}/M$ the universal gas constant div the molar weight Z is a function of $P_R,T_R$
For low pressure and density, we have the conditions for a thermodynamically perfect ideal gas $P = \rho RT$
Vander Waals Eqn of State
def $\left( P + a \frac { 1 } { V { m } ^ { 2 } } \right) \left( V { m } - b \right) = R T$ or as he preferes $P = \rho RT/(1-b\rho)-a\rho^2$
Redlich-Kwong Eqn. of State
def: $p = \frac { R T } { V { m } - b } - \frac { a } { \sqrt { T } V { m } \left( V _ { m } + b \right) }$
Lecture 3
Scalars and Tensors
Scalars are properties without a preferred direction $(\rho,P,T,\mu,h,s)$ so that the normal operations are defined on
Vectors are a properties with a prefered direction so that ${\bf V} = u{\bf e}_x + v {\bf e}_y + w{\bf e}_z = V_x{\bf e}_x + V_y{\bf e}_y + V_z{\bf e}_z$
Here with tensors or order 1 or greater, operations are not commuitive, directions matter
Examples
component extraction ${\bf c} = k{\bf a} = ka_i{\bf e}_i\rightarrow c_i = ka_i $
addition subtraction
${\bf c} = {\bf a} \pm {\bf n} = (a_i + b_i){\bf e}_i$
multiplication is a measure of orthogonality of two vectors
dot inner product : c is now a scalar $c = {\bf a\cdot b} =a_i \space b_i$
cross outer product: c is of the same rank $\bf c = a\times b$ or $ci = \epsilon{ijk}a_jb_k$
Tensors of Rank 2 and up
Rusak’s notation is kinda fucked up. I’m going to copy one verbatim and describe my qualms
$\stackrel{T}{\underline{\underline{}}} = \stackrel{\rightarrow}{a}\stackrel{\rightarrow}{b}$ and does not define the operation which takes place between. Obviously it’s an outer dyatic product but notationally it does not make sense unless indexes are applied

Follow the element in time so that every variable has a definite derivative wrt time.
Lecture 5
Let the quantity of interest be $\bf V$.
${\bf a}_e = \frac{D{\bf V}_e}{Dt} = \frac{d{\bf V}_e}{dt} = \left(\frac{\partial{\bf V}_e}{\partial t} \right)_e + {\bf V}_e(t) \cdot \left(\nabla {\bf V}\right)_e $
Decompose the velocity gradient into even and odd components
$\bf D$ deformation tensor
$\bf \Omega$ spin tensor
Then the velocity vector is described in a Taylor series approximation for fixed time $\textcolor{red}{\texttt{I think he fucked up in the notes here}}$ we have comments of the velocity field in all directions not just ${\bf e}_x$
Note that $d{\bf l}= dx{\bf e}_x + dy{\bf e}_y + dz{\bf e}_z$. In the limit as the differential segment length approaches zero
Fluid FLow Equations
When Fi is an extensive property (volume dependent), the we normalize not by volume but by mass to get a specific quantity : total to specific
As the fluid element evolves in time, we get reynolds transport theorem

$f = {\bf V} $, then $F_{II} \rightarrow \text{momentum in volume at }t $

The Energy Equation
Let $f = e_t$ specific total energy , $e_t = u + \frac{1}{2} {\bf V \cdot V}$
Integral form: $\frac{d}{dt}\int_V \rho e_t d V+ \int_S \rho e_t({\bf V \cdot n}) = \dot{Q}_F$ power or energy per unit time
Conservative $\frac{d}{dt}(\rho e_t)+ \rho e_t({\bf V \cdot n}) = \dot{q}_F$

Vorticity Transport Equation
From equations of motion
We find using the vector identity ${\bf V}\cdot\nabla{\bf V} = \nabla \left(\frac{2}\right) -{\bf V}\times{\underline{\omega}}$ then applying $\nabla \times (\cdot)$ of the expression.
for a newtonian fluid the balance of vorticity $\underline{\omega}$. Effect to change in the flow are each of the terms:$\textcolor{red}{\text{screen caps would be nice}}$
$\underline{\omega}\cdot(\nabla{\bf V})$ is the streching
$\underline{\omega} \left(\nabla \cdot{\bf V}\right)$ measure of compressibility and stretching of rotation
$\nabla T\times \nabla s$ boroclinic effect since $s(T, p), \quad \vec{\nabla} s=(\ldots) \vec{\nabla} T+( \ldots) \vec{v} p$
the rest is viscous diffusion
Fluid statics
If the fluid is not in motion, pressure becomes the dominant effect this is $\bf V=\underline{0}$ and $\nabla {\bf V} = \underline{\underline{0}}$. Equations of motion become $\nabla p = \rho {\bf B}$ the fluid static equation.
Assuming that ${\bf B } = g {\bf e}z$ and $\rho$ is a constant for most liquids. so $\frac{d p}{dz} = \rho g$ and $p|{z=0} = p_\text{atm}$. So integrate from the surface atmospheric for the hydrostatic equation $p(z) = \rho g z+p_a $ for $z \geq 0$.
Force and moment but idk if this is right… don’t trust the units...
Atmospheric pressure
Use the expression $\frac{dp}{dz} = - \rho g$, assuming a perfect gas $p = \rho RT$ creates the aerostatics equation
Using a given T(z)$\textcolor{red}{\text{he corrected but I still can’t read his correction….}}$
Generally T is const $T(z) = \text{const}= 216.6 \text{ K.}$
Stratosphere $1.1\times 10^{4}<z<2.5\times 10^{4}$ where $z\text{bot} = 1.1\times 10^{4}$, $\ln (\frac{p}{p\text{bot}})=\frac{-g}{RT}(z-z_\text{bot})$ is solved straightforward
Focus on liquids where incompressible have $\rho = \text{const}$. for low $\text{Ma}$. of gases and most liquids. Use integral equation of property balance for fixed volume
$\underline{\text{mass:}} \int{\text{vol}} \frac{\partial}{\partial t}d\text{Vol} + \int\text{surf} \rho {\bf V}\cdot {\bf n}dS=0$ where usually $\int_\text{surf} {\bf V}\cdot {\bf n}dS=0$
$\underline{momentum}$aaaaayyy $\int\text{vol}\frac{\partial}{\partial t}(\rho{\bf V})d\text{vol} + \int \rho {\bf V}({\bf V}\cdot {\bf n})dS = \int\text{vol} \rho {\bf B} d\text{vol} - \int\text{surf} p {\bf n} dS + \int\text{surf} \underline{\tau} dS $
or
$\cancelto{0}{\int\text{vol}\frac{\partial}{\partial t}(\rho{\bf V})d\text{vol} }+ \int \rho {\bf V}({\bf V}\cdot {\bf n})dS = \int\text{vol} \rho {\bf B} d\text{vol} - \int\text{surf} p {\bf n} dS + \int\text{surf} \underline{\tau} dS \\textcolor{red}{\text{i can’t deal with these notes… impossible to transcribe}}$
Ya know, I'm not mathematician here, but even I can see a common denominator ...
