|
Name the flow:
Fluid flow is very organized with layers of fluid flowing parallel to the walls of the vessel. |
Laminar
|
|
Name the flow:
Flow velocity is highest near the centre of the vessel, and gets gradually slower towards the edges of the vessel. |
Laminar
|
|
Name the flow:
Fluid flow is disorganized, with eddies and small discrete portions of the fluid flowing in different directions. |
Turbulent
|
|
Name the flow:
In general, flow velocity is uniform from the walls of the vessel right through the centre of the vessel. |
Turbulent
|
|
Relates flow rate to the pressure change along a vessel.
