1. Entropy equation
In a fluid, stresses are essentially due to hydrostatic pressure p. The mechanical tension T exerted on each surface element is almost normal to it. A deviation from this law occurs with viscosity, which creates tangential stresses τ
ij
. To separate the two effects, let's take the stress tensor as :
with δ ij Kronecker symbol.
The viscous stresses τ ij lead to the dissipation of part of the mechanical energy. The evolution...
