About this document
Fluid Mechanics II: External Flow Analysis by Waléēd Altaf is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses external fluid flows, including: 1) External flows occur over bodies completely surrounded by fluid, such as air flowing around airplanes or water around submarines. 2) External flows are classified based on the shape of the body, including two-dimensional, axisymmetric, and three-dimensional bodies. 3) Forces on a body in a fluid include drag in the direction of flow and lift normal to the flow, calculated using pressure and shear stress distributions on the surface.
