Abstract

The channel-flow form of the equations describing fluid flow in soft-walled tubes is analysed. Several analytical solutions for the properties of the flow existing in tubes with various analytical forms of pressure/ area relationships are presented. The vital relationship of the tube mechanical stability to the flow Mach number is established. The necessary conditions for the formation of a hydraulic jump are established, and the resultant degradation in total pressure determined. Finally, an example numerical result for an hydraulic jump is given.
