Bernoulli theory for thermodynamic Cauchy flows

i. Overview

This module is reserved for Bernoulli definitions and results based on the shared `ThermodynamicCauchyFlow` data together with an explicit external potential parameter, rather than defining a separate Bernoulli-flow structure.

ii. Key results

  • `bernoulliFunction` : The Bernoulli function `|u|^2 / 2 + h + Phi`.
  • `LocalBernoulliLaw` : Vanishing spatial gradient of the Bernoulli function.
  • `BernoulliLaw` : Spatial constancy of the Bernoulli function at each time.

definition

The Bernoulli function 12u2+h+Φ\frac{1}{2} |\mathbf{u}|^2 + h + \Phi

Given a dimension dd, a thermodynamic Cauchy flow, and an external potential Φ:Space dR\Phi: \text{Space } d \to \mathbb{R}, the Bernoulli function is the scalar field defined at each time tt and position xx as: B(t,x)=12u(t,x)2+h(t,x)+Φ(x) B(t, x) = \frac{1}{2} |\mathbf{u}(t, x)|^2 + h(t, x) + \Phi(x) where 12u2\frac{1}{2} |\mathbf{u}|^2 is the specific kinetic energy (with u\mathbf{u} being the velocity field) and hh is the specific enthalpy of the flow.

definition

Local Bernoulli Law: B=0\nabla B = 0

For a given dimension dd, a thermodynamic Cauchy flow with velocity field u\mathbf{u} and specific enthalpy hh, and an external potential Φ:Space dR\Phi: \text{Space } d \to \mathbb{R}, the local Bernoulli law is the property that the spatial gradient of the Bernoulli function B(t,x)=12u(t,x)2+h(t,x)+Φ(x)B(t, x) = \frac{1}{2} |\mathbf{u}(t, x)|^2 + h(t, x) + \Phi(x) vanishes at every time tt and position xx: B(t,x)=0 \nabla B(t, x) = 0

definition

Bernoulli Law: Spatial constancy of B(t,x)B(t, x)

For a given dimension dd, a thermodynamic Cauchy flow with velocity field u\mathbf{u} and specific enthalpy hh, and an external potential Φ:Space dR\Phi: \text{Space } d \to \mathbb{R}, the Bernoulli Law is the predicate stating that the Bernoulli function B(t,x)=12u(t,x)2+h(t,x)+Φ(x) B(t, x) = \frac{1}{2} |\mathbf{u}(t, x)|^2 + h(t, x) + \Phi(x) is spatially constant at each time tt. That is, for every time tt and any two positions x,yx, y, the condition B(t,x)=B(t,y)B(t, x) = B(t, y) holds.
