Hydraulics and Fluid Mechanics · Lesson 4 of 27

Momentum and Forces in Fluid Flow

Apply the impulse-momentum equation, sum(F) = rho x Q x (V2 - V1), to find the dynamic force a moving fluid exerts on flat plates and curved vanes struck by a jet, on moving blades that produce power, and on nozzles and pipe bends where pressure and momentum combine into the anchoring force, on the Hydraulics and Geotechnical Engineering paper of the CELE.
