Study Notes
Assumptions for Flow Inside a Tube
- The flow is considered to be within a tube of infinitesimal diameter
- The control volume is defined as the region bounded by the tube
Key Considerations for the Problem
- The flow is assumed to be in a steady-state regime
- The fluid is incompressible, meaning its density remains constant
- Viscosity effects are negligible, simplifying the analysis
- The flow is uniform across the cross-sectional areas of the tube
