2. Perfect fluid hypothesis
The solution to the entropy equation(4) is very simple when the dissipative terms due to viscosity and thermal conductivity are negligible. This is the case for a perfect fluid for which :
the mechanical tension is normal to each surface element and independent of its orientation:Tij = – pδij;
the heat flow is zero:qi = 0 ;
specific internal energy is a function of entropy s and density ρ : e = e(s, ρ).
This last assumption assumes that the fluid is in thermodynamic equilibrium at...
