Test 1

Number of dimensions based on x, y, and z


Steady depends on t
If Steady: Pathline = Streakline = Streamline
Streamline: A line that is everywhere tangent to local
velocity vector



Pathline: Actual path traversed by a fluid particle



Streakline: Particles that have pass through a specific
point
For block example and really really small h:
Laminar flow: Low Reynolds number, smooth flow
Unstable flow: Re = Re
crit

Turbulent flow: Re > Re
crit


For Mach < 0.3 assume incompressible
