Streamline Moderne

(noun)

Streamline Moderne, sometimes referred to by either name alone or as Art Moderne, was a late type of the Art Deco design style which emerged during the 1930s. Its architectural style emphasized curving forms, long horizontal lines, and sometimes nautical elements.

  • Application of Bernoulli's Equation: Pressure and Speed

    • For "ideal" flow along a streamline with no change in height, an increase in velocity results from a decrease in static pressure.
    • Therefore, if there is no change in potential energy along a streamline, Bernoulli's equation implies that the total energy along that streamline is constant and is a balance between static and dynamic pressure.
    • along a streamline.
    • Given that any energy exchanges result from conservative forces, the total energy along a streamline is constant and is simply swapped between potential and kinetic.
    • The flow rate out can be determined by drawing a streamline from point ( A ) to point ( C ).

    • Modern heat exchangers have specially designed tubes which encourage turbulent flow for better mixing and heat transfer.
    • At low velocity, flow in a very smooth tube or around a smooth, streamlined object will be laminar.
