Study Notes
Fluid Dynamics
- The study of the flow of fluids is known as fluid dynamics.
Assumptions in Fluid Dynamics
- The density of fluids is assumed to be constant in the study of fluid dynamics.
Viscosity
- Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a fluid to flow or its "thickness".
Flow of Fluids
- In the study of fluid dynamics, it is assumed that the flow of fluids is continuous and smooth.
Non-Newtonian Fluids
- Fluids that don't flow as easily, like honey, are referred to as non-Newtonian fluids.
