Equation of Free Vortex Flow

In case of free vortex flow



We know,

dp  = ρv2 / r dr - ρg dr            put v = C/r

dp  = ρ x C2 / r3 dr-ρ g dz

Consider two points 1 and 2 in fluid having radius r1 and r2 respectively from the central axis and their height being z1 and z2 from bottom of the vessel.

Integrating Equation for point 1 and 2.

2         2                       2
∫  dp = ∫ ρ C2 / r3 dr - ∫ ρ g dz
1         1                       1
                           2                   2
p2 - p1 = ρ C2  ∫ r-3 dr - ρ g ∫  dz
                           1                   1

= ρ C2 ( r-3+1 / -3+1)12 - ρ g (Z)12  = ρ C2 (-1 / 2r2 )12 - ρ g (z2 - z1)

=  ρC2 / 2 [ 1/2 r2 1/2 r2 ] - ρ g (z2 - z1) = - ρ / 2 (v22 - v12) - ρ g (z2 - z1)

where      v2  = c2 / r2 and v1 = c1 / r1

P2 - P = ρ/2 (v12 - v22) - ρ g ( z2 - z1)    

dividing both side by ρg

P2 - P1 / ρg = v12 - v22 / 2g - ( z2 + z1)

P2 / γ - P1 / γ  = V12 / 2g - v22 / 2g - z2 + z1

P1 / γ  + v12 / 2g + z1  =  P2 / γ + v22 / 2g + z2

Bernoulli’s equation is applicable for free vortex flow.
