1) Derive the continuity equation in cylindrical coordinates by applying the law of
conservation of mass to an elemental control volume of dimensions r, r, and z in r,
and z directions, respectively.
2) Derive the energy equation (in terms of temperature) in cylindrical coordinates without
involving the viscous dissipation terms.
(Hint: The contribution of pressure and viscous forces towards mechanical energy and
work can be neglected.)
3) Derive the momentum equation for an arbitrary control volume based on tensor
notation using Reynolds transport theorem.
(Hint: First apply Newtons second law for an arbitrary closed system (control mass).
Then apply Reynolds transport theorem to transform the conservation equation to that for
a control volume.)
4) For a 3-D control volume oriented along the Cartesian x,y,z directions, Derive the energy
equation (in terms of temperature) for a viscous compressible fluid. Show that it can be
expressed in a coordinate free representation as
