Steady flow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Steady flow is a type of liquid flow in which

  • The liquid flow is smooth and uniform.
  • The velocity of the fluid at a point remains constant with respect to time.
  • The streamlines do not cross each other.
  • Eulerian Velocity is time independent

The Reynolds number can be used to determine the state of fluid flow.

<math>R_e < 1000</math> - Steady Flow
<math>1000 <R_e< 2000</math> - Unsteady Flow
<math>R_e > 2000</math> - Turbulent Flow
