Abstract

The one-dimensional partial differential equations of mass and momentum are derived by applying control volume methods to an elastic conduit containing a compressible fluid. The derivation is accomplished by choosing a control surface to be represented by a differential element having cross sections (ends) fixed in space and wall boundary coincident with the pipe wall. By not including the pipe wall itself in the control volume the developed relationships do not directly include effects of the structure other than those of radial motion.
