Fluid Dynamics

Fluid dynamics is the area of fluid mechanics that describes how fluids flow. In real life, fluids don't have laminar(perfect) flow but this section will cover only laminar flow. While laminar flow may not be best for real conditions, it can approximate and conceptualize real fluid conditions very well, making it worth understanding.

There are multiple types of fluid flows in fluid dynamics. Laminar flow is pretty much the ideal case where the fluid flows as if it's made up of a bunch of thin layers traveling together. Turbulent flow is when the layers disrupt each other and the fluid is extremely chaotic. Laminar flow usually occurs when the fluid is slow or viscous and turbulent flow occurs at higher speeds.

Here are the topics for this section:
