An equation representing pressure field P = P (x, y, z) within fluid at rest is derived in this section. Since the fluid is at rest, we can define the pressure field in terms of space dimensions (x, y and z) only.
Consider a fluid element of rectangular parellopiped shape( Fig : L – 7.1) within a large fluid region which is at rest. The forces acting on the element are body and surface forces.
