  2. Dynamic pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_pressure

    Dynamic pressure is one of the terms of Bernoulli's equation, which can be derived from the conservation of energy for a fluid in motion. [1] At a stagnation point the dynamic pressure is equal to the difference between the stagnation pressure and the static pressure, so the dynamic pressure in a flow field can be measured at a stagnation point ...

  3. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    q = ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ ρv 2 is dynamic pressure, h = z + ⁠ p / ρg ⁠ is the piezometric head or hydraulic head (the sum of the elevation z and the pressure head) [11] [12] and; p 0 = p + q is the stagnation pressure (the sum of the static pressure p and dynamic pressure q). [13] The constant in the Bernoulli equation can be normalized.

  4. Max q - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_q

    Dynamic pressure q is defined in incompressible fluid dynamics as = where ρ is the local air density, and v is the vehicle's velocity.The dynamic pressure can be thought of as the kinetic energy density of the air with respect to the vehicle, and for incompressible flow equals the difference between total pressure and static pressure.

  5. Total dynamic head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_dynamic_head

    In fluid dynamics, total dynamic head (TDH) is the work to be done by a pump, per unit weight, per unit volume of fluid.TDH is the total amount of system pressure, measured in feet, where water can flow through a system before gravity takes over, and is essential for pump specification.

  6. Vortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortex

    The fluid motion in a vortex creates a dynamic pressure (in addition to any hydrostatic pressure) that is lowest in the core region, closest to the axis, and increases as one moves away from it, in accordance with Bernoulli's principle. One can say that it is the gradient of this pressure that forces the fluid to follow a curved path around the ...

  7. Drag equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drag_equation

    Here the pressure P D is referred to as dynamic pressure due to the kinetic energy of the fluid experiencing relative flow velocity u. This is defined in similar form as the kinetic energy equation: P D = 1 2 ρ u 2 {\displaystyle P_{\rm {D}}={\frac {1}{2}}\rho u^{2}}

  8. Impact pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_pressure

    In compressible fluid dynamics, impact pressure (dynamic pressure) is the difference between total pressure (also known as pitot pressure or stagnation pressure) and static pressure. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] In aerodynamics notation, this quantity is denoted as q c {\displaystyle q_{c}} or Q c {\displaystyle Q_{c}} .

  9. Pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure

    The pressure at any given point of a non-moving (static) fluid is called the hydrostatic pressure. Closed bodies of fluid are either "static", when the fluid is not moving, or "dynamic", when the fluid can move as in either a pipe or by compressing an air gap in a closed container.
