CLASSIFICATION OF FLOWS
Flow characterized by two parameters – time and distance.
Division of flows with respect to time:• Steady flow – time independent• Unsteady flow – time dependent• Quasi-steady flow – slow changes with time
Division of flows with respect to distance:• Uniform flow – constant section area along flow path• Non-uniform flow – variable section area

VISUALIZATION OF FLOW PATTERNS
Streamline: a curve that is drawn in such a way that it is tangential to the velocity vector at any point along the curve. A curve that is representing the direction of flow at a given time. No flow across a stream line.

Example streamline and streakline
A flowfield is periodic in such a way that the streamline pattern is repeated at fixed intervals. During the first second the fluid is moving upwards to the right at a 45o angle and during the next second the fluid is moving downwards to the right at a 45o angle etcaccording to Fig. a). The flow velocity is constant = 10 m/s. After 2.5 s the particle track for a particle that is released at point A at time zero is shown in Fig. b). If colour is injected continuously at point A from time 0 how will the resulting streakline look like after 2.5 s?

LAMINAR AND TURBULENT FLOW
Laminar flow • Flow along parallel paths• Shear stress proportional to
velocity gradient (τ = μ⋅du/dy)• Disturbances in the flow are
rapidly damped by viscous action
Turbulent flow• Fluid particles moves in a
random manner and not in layers
• Length scales >> molecular scales in laminar flow
• Rapid continuous mixing• Inertia forces and viscous
forces of importance
