2. Thermal fluids - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_fluids

   Fluid mechanics can further be divided into fluid statics, the study of fluids at rest, and fluid dynamics, the study of fluids in motion. Some of its more interesting concepts include momentum and reactive forces in fluid flow and fluid machinery theory and performance. Sections include: Fluid flow and continuity; Momentum in fluids

3. Particle-laden flow - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle-laden_flow

   The starting point for a mathematical description of almost any type of fluid flow is the classical set of Navier–Stokes equations.To describe particle-laden flows, we must modify these equations to account for the effect of the particles on the carrier, or vice versa, or both - a suitable choice of such added complications depend on a variety of the parameters, for instance, how dense the ...

4. Outline of fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_fluid_dynamics

   In physics, physical chemistry and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids – liquids and gases. It has several subdisciplines, including aerodynamics (the study of air and other gases in motion) and hydrodynamics (the study of water and other liquids in motion).

5. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

   A flow that is not a function of time is called steady flow. Steady-state flow refers to the condition where the fluid properties at a point in the system do not change over time. Time dependent flow is known as unsteady (also called transient [8]). Whether a particular flow is steady or unsteady, can depend on the chosen frame of reference.

6. Microfluidics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microfluidics

   Typically microfluidic systems transport, mix, separate, or otherwise process fluids. Various applications rely on passive fluid control using capillary forces, in the form of capillary flow modifying elements, akin to flow resistors and flow accelerators. In some applications, external actuation means are additionally used for a directed ...

7. Eddy (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_(fluid_dynamics)

   In fluid dynamics, an eddy is the swirling of a fluid and the reverse current created when the fluid is in a turbulent flow regime. [2] The moving fluid creates a space devoid of downstream-flowing fluid on the downstream side of the object. Fluid behind the obstacle flows into the void creating a swirl of fluid on each edge of the obstacle ...
