FLUID MECHANICS
A branch of applied mechanics that is concerned with the statics and dynamics
of liquids and gases. It is also defined as the science that deals with the
behavior of fluids at rest (fluid statics) or in motion (fluid dynamics), and the
interaction of fluids with solids or other fluids at the boundaries.

SPECIFIC GRAVITY
Specific gravity (g) is the ratio of the fluid’s density to the density of a certain
standard reference. The standard reference used for liquids and solids is pure
water, which is water at densed condition (Temperature = 4 ˚C or 39.2 ˚F). The
specific gravity of water is taken as 1.000. Another term for specific gravity is
relative density.

𝑆𝐺𝑙𝑖𝑞𝑢𝑖𝑑 = 𝑆𝐺𝑔𝑎𝑠 =
𝜌𝑤𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑟 𝜌𝑎𝑖𝑟
However, if the temperature and pressure of air and gas are the same, then
specific gravity can be calculated as the ratio of molecular weight or as inverse
ratio of specific gas constants.
