In this case, momentum and total force can be resolving into components in
the x and y directions (since both momentum and force are vector quantities)

Fluid Mechanics Momentum Equation & Its Applications
Important Note:
The force is made up of three components:
F = F = Force exerted in the direction of the fluid by any
touching the control volume.
F = F = Force exerted in the direction of the fluid by a
(gravity force).
F = Fluid weight + object weight = (ρVg) + (ρVg)
F = F = Force exerted in the direction of the fluid by a
outside the control volume
F = F , ⃗ + F , ⃗ + ⋯ F , ⃗ (If the flow is in two dimensional the pressure
will be analyze in x and y directions).such that F = Pressure × Area
The final relationship for momentum equation will be as following:
= + + = ( − )
=− + + = ( − )→ = + − ( − )
Note:
When calculating F the pressure at the inlet and outlet is always applied on
the fluid (if the pressure is positive “not vacuum”), however the velocity is
always in the direction of fluid.
The following figure clarifies this note:

Bernoulli’s Equation
This equation states the relationship between velocity (v), Pressure (P), and
elevation (z) for: steady flow of frictionless fluid of constant density.
This equation is one of the most important equations in fluid mechanics and
engineering applications (as we will discuss in Ch.6).
Bernoulli equation can be written along a streamline between two points (1)
and (2) as following:

The figure below shows a smooth curved vane attached to a rigid
foundation. The jet of water, rectangular in section, 75 mm wide and 25 mm
thick, deflected on the vane with a velocity of 25m/s. Calculate the vertical
and horizontal components of the force exerted on the vane and indicate in
which direction these components act.
Solution
R = F +F + ρQ(v − v ), but F = F = 0.0
→ R = ρQ(v − v )
A = A = 0.075 × 0.025 = 0.001875 m
Since A = A → v = v = 25 m/s(as given)

The 6-cm-diameter water jet shown in figure below strikes a plate containing
a hole of 4-cm diameter. Part of the jet passes through the hole, and part is
deflected. Determine the horizontal force required to hold the plate.
Solution
The most important note in this question is the flow is not the same at 1 and
2 because the flow at 1 divided into three parts (up, down and to the hole).
The force on the plate equals the horizontal component of the force of water
on the plate (Rx).
