Fluid mechanics is the study of fluids, which include liquids and gases, and their behavior under various forces. It encompasses fluid statics, fluid dynamics, hydrodynamics, hydraulics, gas dynamics, and aerodynamics. Each subfield focuses on different aspects of fluid behavior, such as incompressible liquids, gas flow, and interactions with solid boundaries.

Fluid Mechanics

Introduction
Any substance which has tendency to flow is called Fluid.

Liquids and Gases are referred as fluids

Mechanics: Branch of science that deals with both moving and


stationary bodies under the influence of the force.

Fluid Mechanics: that deals with fluid at rest (fluid statics), in motion
(fluid dynamics), interaction of fluids with solid or other fluids at the
boundaries.
Fluid Mechanics
Introduction
Study of incompressible liquids such as water is called Hydrodynamics,
sub category Hydraulics which deals with flow of water in pipes and
channels
Flow of fluids that undergoes significant density change is called Gas
dynamics (flow of gases through nozzles at high speed). A gas such as
methane passing through compressor.
Aerodynamics: Deals with the gas flows (especially air) around the
airplanes, rockets, and automobiles at high or low speed.
