PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF FLUID

Hydrostatics Concerned with fluids that are not in motion

 Hydrodynamics Concerned with the mechanical properties of fluids

system and is generally a system of

units of measurement. It is the world's most widely used system of

measurement, both in everyday

commerce and in science.

Density
The mass density or density of a material is defined as its mass per unit volume. The symbol most often used for density is (the Greek letter rho).
= m v

Why these liquid separated into different layers?

Specific weight
The specific weight (also known as the unit weight) is the weight per unit volume of a material.
= m v

Specific gravity
Specific gravity is the ratio of the density (mass of a unit volume) of a substance to the density (mass of the same unit volume) of a reference substance.
= sub wa ter

Specific volume
specific volume is the volume of a substance divided by mass. It is the reciprocal of density specific volume is the volume of a substance divided by mass. It is the reciprocal of density
Vs = 1

PRESSURE AND PRESSURE HEAD

Atmospheric Pressure
The force per unit area exerted against a surface by the weight of air above that surface in the Earth's atmosphere.
Atmospheric Pressure at Sea Level

Vacuum
The full or partial elimination of Atmospheric Pressure Atmospheric Pressure on the Moon = 0 = Full Vacuum. 1 Inch Hg Vacuum = 1.13 Ft of Water

 Absolute Pressure is the sum of the available atmospheric pressure and the gauge pressure in the pumping system Absolute Pressure(PSIA) = Gauge Pressure + Atmospheric Pressure

Absolute Pressure = 150 PSIG(Gauge Pressure) + 14.7 PSI(Atmospheric Pressure) = 164.7 PSI
