Diffusion terms are not included in ____ of the Navier-Stokes equations.(a) continuity equation(b) y-momentum equation(c) z-momentum equation(d) energy equationThe question was asked during a job interview.My query is from Navier Stokes Equation topic in section Governing Equations of Fluid Dynamics of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Right answer is (c) z-momentum equation

To explain I would say: Mass DIFFUSION of the continuity equations are in general not included in the Navier-Stokes equations. This is because most of the fluid FLOW and thermodynamic processes do not include any CHANGE in concentration which is mass diffusion.
