2.7 Review
• Compressible fluids ⇒ Isothermal, adiabatic
• The U.S. standard atmosphere is based on the concept of adiabatic conditions
(γ = γ(θ)) for the troposphere (0 < z < 11.0 km) and isothermal conditions
(γ = γ0) for the stratosphere (11.0 < z < 20.1).
• If the surface S is horizontal, P = a constant ⇒ FR = PA
2.8 Pressure Prism
Consider the following example:

We can solve this directly as just shown, however, for many situations (or just for many
people who prefer to think in a different manner!) a decomposition of the pressures into
a series of pressure prisms is often easier. Consider the decomposition such that
FyR= F1y1 + F2y2

2.9 Review
• Hydrostatic force on an inclined plane surface
FR = PCA
xR =Ixycγ sin θ
PCA
yR =Ixcγ sin θ
PCA
• Pressure prism → break the force up into a part arising from the constant
pressure due to everything that happens to the point just above the surface and
the depth varying part over the surface.
⇒ Most easily applied to shapes with no lateral variation and constant density over
the surface.
2.10 Hydrostatic Force on a Curved Surface
There are two approaches:
1. dFR = P dA ⇒ non-planar hence the integration is hard!
2. Apply a static control volume
∑
Fx = 0 = FAC − FH ⇒ FAC = FH
∑
Fz = 0 = −FAB − W + FV ⇒ FV = FAB + Q
44
Where is the center of pressure?
FH must be collinear (no shear) with FAC
FV must be collinear with the resultant of FAB + W
Example – Oil Tanker
FH = FAC = PCA = γhCA = γ(d −r
2)rb
Now assume we are interested in solving for a unit width (i.e., b = 1 m). Therefore
FH = 10kN
m3(24m −
1.5m
2)(1.5m)(1m) = 349kN
2.10.1 Line of Action
How do we determine the line of action for the resultant force on a curved surface? We
could use our moment of inertia based method reviewed above but let’s use pressure
prisms here.
F1 = γ(d − r)rb = 10 · 22.5 · 1.5 · 1 = 337.5kN
y1 = d −r
2= 23.25m
CEE 3310 – Hydrostatics, Sept. 10, 2010 45
F2 = γr
2rb = 10 ·
1.5
2· 1.5 · 1 = 11.25kN
y2 = d −r
3= 23.5m
Therefore
yACFAC = F1y1 + F2y2 ⇒ yAC =337.5kN · 23.25m + 11.25kN · 23.5m
348.75kN= 23.26m
Similarly
FV = 355.3kN and xBC = −0.756m (x = 0 at the tanker’s vertical surface)
2.11 Buoyancy
FB =
∫
body
(P1 − P1) dAH = −γ
∫
(z2 − z1) dAH = γ · (body volume)
Therefore
FB = FV2− FV1
= Fluid weight above S2 − fluid weight above S1
= weight of fluid occupying the volume of the body
2.11.1 Archimedes’ Principal
FB = Weight of fluid displaced by a body or a floating body displaces its own weight of
the fluid on which it floats.

2.11.2 Stability of Floating Bodies
The stability of a floating body depends on the location of the buoyancy force and the
weight of the body. They each exert a moment – one is a righting moment (the tendency
to rotate the object to an upright position) while the other is an overturning moment
(the tendency to flip the body over).
