Note that for an ideal gas

T

and for a liquid,
T
is usually smaller
than

. The enthalpy change dh is also written by using the quantity
T
,
and it can be thus derived from the thermodynamics relationship;

In the case of an incompressible flow, i.e. 0 u , or if the pressure
variation is supposed to be small enough that the term

in Eq.
(2.5.23) can be disregarded, which is really limited to nearly incompressi-
ble material, the conservation equation of energy will become

It should be kept in mind that in a compressible flow or a nearly in-
compressible flow of continuum, the specific heat is

flows of nearly incompressible materials, it is satisfactory to say that

Considering Eq. (2.4.12), the heat transfer
q to a fluid particle is con-
sidered to be carried out by heat conduction through the surface. In this
case
q is given by Fourier’s law;

Here,
c
k is the thermal conductivity, noting that
n

is directed toward the
surface in Eq. (2.4.12). It is further to be noted that Eq. (2.5.28) stands for
homogeneous and non-diffusing mixtures. Thus, using Eqs. (2.5.28),
