Hydraulics combines engineering, chemistry, and fluid mechanics for liquid applications. Hydraulics is the liquid counterpart of pneumatics, focusing on fluid properties. Principles are used naturally in human vascular system and erectile tissue
Manning's equation calculates gravity-driven water flow parameters. Formula requires pipe dimensions, surface roughness, and flow slope. Equation balances gravity with friction resistance. Hydraulic radius accounts for channel shape
Pascal's law states that pressure changes in confined fluids are transmitted equally throughout. Principle was established by Blaise Pascal in 1653 and published in 1663. Principle applies to both static flow and continuous fluid processes
Static pressure is the total pressure in Bernoulli's equation. Pressure can be measured at every point in a fluid regardless of motion. Total pressure remains constant along streamline in irrotational flow. Static pressure is used to distinguish it from total and dynamic pressures
