We begin this chapter with a discussion on hydrostatic (Sect. 2.1), presenting a few applications (Sect. 2.2). Then, in Sects. 2.3–2.5, a few interfacial effects in fluids are described, first by defining surface tension, and then by showing a few examples of capillary hydrostatics, such as the Young-Laplace theory and the contact angle.

In a static fluid system there is no relative motion between fluid particles hence there are no shear surface forces. The only forces present are normal surface forces due to pressure and body forces due to gravity. The relationships obtained for a static fluid also apply to a system moving with constant velocity because there are no additional forces ...

Large, curved and quiescent fluid interfaces can only be realized under microgravity conditions. This enables one to investigate macroscopic, partly contained fluids having high sensitivity to weak forces. Capillary equilibrium and stability, wetting, convection driven by interfacial tension gradients, the influence of centrifugal, electric and ...

The equilibrium of a fluid is certainly the most simple fluid “flow”. However, not moving is not that easy for a fluid and we shall learn here, among other things, which conditions need to be satisfied for a fluid to remain in equilibrium.

1992Abstract As noted in Chapter 1, many metallurgical operations require fluid to be transferred from one location to another. Often the simultaneous transport of heat or mass as a result of such fluid convection processes can be of prime significance.
