Continuity Equation
• Continuity equation represents the law mass conservation.
• Unsteady flow the continuity equation
• For steady state condition
(Mass flow rate into the system)
(Mass flow rate out of the system)- =
Rate of change of storage.
(Mass flow rate into the system)
(Mass flow rate out of the system)- =

Example No. 1
• A jet of water discharges into an open tank, and water leaves the tank through an orifice in the bottom at a rate of 0.003 m3/s. If the cross-sectional area of the jet is 0.0025 m2 where the velocity of water is 7 m/s, at what rate is water accumulating in (or evacuating from) the tank?

Example No. 1
• Situation: Jet of water (7 m/s at 0.0025 m2) entering tank and water leaving at 0.003 m3/s through orifice.
• Find: Rate of accumulation (or evacuation) in tank (kg/s).
Water density is 1000 kg/m3.

Example No. 1
PlanThere is one inlet and one outlet.
1. Develop an equation for accumulation rate by applying the continuity equation.
2. Analyze equation term by term.
3. Calculate the accumulation rate.

Example No. 2
• A river discharges into a reservoir at a rate of 400,000 ft3/s (cfs), and the outflow rate from the reservoir through the flow passages in the dam is 250,000 cfs. If the reservoir surface area is 40 mi2, what is the rate of rise of water in the reservoir?

A tank has a hole in the bottom with a cross-sectional area of 0.0025 m2. The cross-sectional area of the tank is 0.1 m2. The velocity of the liquid flowing out the bottom hole is V=(2gh)0.5, where h is the height of the water surface in the tank above the outlet. At a certain time the surface level in the tank is 1 m and rising at the rate of 0.1 cm/s. The liquid is incompressible. Find the velocity of the liquid through the inlet.
