In physics, physical chemistry, and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids – liquids and gases. It has several subdisciplines, including ae
The transition from laminar to turbulent flow
Bernoulli's principle is a concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, speed and height. For example, for a fluid flowing horizontally, Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed
Fluid dynamics
…Navier–Stokes equations to be simplified into the Euler equations. The integration of the Euler equations along a streamline in an inviscid flow yields Bernoulli's equation. When, in addition to being inviscid, the flow is irrotational everywhere, Bernoulli's equation can completely describe the flow everywhere. Such flows…
Condensation visible over the upper surface of an Airbus A340 wing caused by the increase in relative humidity accompanying the fall in pressure and temperature
Smoked air-flow of modified Bernoulli-based gripper for grasping textile materials . By redirecting air flows, it is possible to eliminate vibration of materials during their grasping and manipulation by robots.
Blowing over a piece of paper causes it to rise. Blowing under a piece of paper also causes it to rise. Neither is a demonstration of Bernoulli's Principle.
A ping pong ball is held in a diagonal stream of air. While it is often claimed this is due to the stream having lower pressure than the surrounding air, this explanation is erroneous.
