    Bernoulli

    This document summarizes Bernoulli's theorem, which states that for an inviscid flow of fluid, the total mechanical energy at any point along a streamline remains constant. It provides the equations showing that the sum of pressure, kinetic energy, and potential energy at any two points along a streamline must be equal, with the left side representing the total mechanical energy and the right side representing the work done by pressure forces as fluid moves between the two points.

    Bernoulli’s Theorem

    The fluid rests at B and D initially. Within infinitesimal time ∆t, the fluid reaches C and E. The
    distance covered will be v1 Δ t and v 2 Δ t if v1 and v 2 be the velocities of the fluid at B and C. Let the
    cross sections of B and C be A1 and A2 , and the pressures acting be P1 and P2 respectively.

    We have,

    W =⃗
    F . ⃗d

    ⇒ Work done by the fluid = W 1=P1 A1 ( v 1 Δt) and

    work done on the fluid = W 2=P2 A 2 (v 2 Δt)

    ∴ total work done in passing the fluid = P1 A1 ( v 1 Δ t )−P2 A2 ( v 2 Δt )=( P1 −P 2 ) ∆ V … ( i )

    The change in gravitational potential energy can be written as,

    ∆ U =mg ( h2−h1 )=ρ ∆ V ( h2 −h1 )

    The change in kinetic energy can be written as,

    1 1
    ∆ K = m ( v 22=v 21) = ρ ∆ V ( v 22=v 21 )
    2 2

    1
    ∴ Total energy = ρ ∆ V ( h 2−h1 ) + ρ ∆ V ( v 22=v 21 )
    2

    By work energy theorem, we have total energy = total work done

    1
    ∴ ρ ∆ V ( h2−h1 ) + ρ ∆ V ( v 22=v 21) =( P1−P 2) ∆V
    2

    1
    ∴ ρ ( h2−h 1) + ρ ( v 22=v 21) =( P1 −P 2)
    2

    1 2
    ⇒ P+ ρ v + ρgh=Constant
    2

    P 1 2
    + v + gh=constant
    ρ 2
