Newton's second law is applied to obtain the linear momentum in a control volume in a fluid system. According to this law, the rate of change of linear momentum is equal to the sum of external forces acting on the system. When a control volume matches the fluid system at a specific moment, the forces acting on both are identical. Reynolds transport theorem helps explain this by breaking down the system's linear momentum into two components: the rate of change of linear momentum within the control volume and the net flow of linear momentum across the control surface.
As mass moves in and out of the control volume, it carries linear momentum with it, making the transfer of momentum analogous to the flow of mass. For control volumes that are fixed, nondeforming, and stationary, Newton's second law provides an accurate representation of the system's dynamics. It accounts for internal changes in momentum as well as the momentum flowing across the boundaries of the control surface. This theoretical framework is essential in fluid dynamics for analyzing forces, motion, and interactions within well-defined regions of flow, making it applicable to a wide range of engineering problems.
Newton's second law for a fluid system states that the rate of change of linear momentum in a flow with respect to time is equal to the sum of the external forces the system experiences.
At any given instant, when a control volume coincides with the fluid system, the forces acting on the system and those acting on the control volume's contents are instantaneously identical.
When applied to the system and the coinciding control volume, the Reynolds transport theorem gives important insights.
The time rate of change of a system's linear momentum is represented as the sum of two control volume components: the time rate of change of the linear momentum within the control volume and the net rate of linear momentum flowing across the control surface.
As particles of mass enter or exit a control volume through the control surface, they carry linear momentum with them. This means that the flow of linear momentum is just as natural as the flow of mass.
Lastly, for a control volume that is fixed and nondeforming, Newton's second law can be suitably represented.
