ABSTRACT
An extension of the energy conservation theorem is established for fluid dynamical purposes. Equations are developed that divide the mechanical energy of a system into three partial energies based on the three orthogonal directions of a Cartesian coordinate system. In addition to terms similar to the terms of ordinary energy equations, these equations contain terms that handle transfer of energy within a fluid, i.e. between the three partial energies. Thereby internal transfer of energy can be studied. A brief study, that gives a consequence of viscous of dissipation on water waves, is included as an example.
