What is Fluid Mechanics?

Fluid dynamics is “the branch of applied science that is concerned with the movement of liquids and gases”. It involves a wide range of applications such as calculating force & moments, determining the mass flow rate of petroleum through pipelines, predicting weather patterns, understanding nebulae in interstellar space, and modelling fission weapon detonation.

What is Hydrostatic Pressure?

Hydrostatic pressure is defined as “The pressure exerted by a fluid at equilibrium at any point of time due to the force of gravity”. Hydrostatic pressure is proportional to the depth measured from the surface as the weight of the fluid increases when a downward force is applied. The fluid pressure can be caused by gravity, acceleration or forces when in a closed container. Consider a layer of water from the top of the bottle. There is the pressure exerted by the layer of water acting on the sides of the bottle. As we move down from the top of the bottle to the bottom, the pressure exerted by the top layer on the bottom adds up. This phenomenon is responsible for more pressure at the bottom of the container.

How to Calculate Vertical Rise of Free Surface?

Vertical Rise of Free Surface calculator uses Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface = Z Coordinate of Liquid Free Surface at Point 2-Z Coordinate of Liquid Free Surface at Point 1 to calculate the Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface, The Vertical Rise of Free Surface formula is the difference between the z coordinate of liquid's free surface at points 2 and 1. The free surface's vertical rise (or drop) at point 2 relative to point 1 is determined by choosing both 1 and 2 on the free surface (so that P1 = P2).where Zs is the z-coordinate of the liquid’s free surface. The equation for surfaces of constant pressure, called isobars, by setting dP = 0 and replacing z by Zisobar, which is the z-coordinate (the vertical distance) of the surface as a function of x. Change in Z Coordinate of Liquid's Free Surface is denoted by ΔZ_s symbol.
