Information About

Steady Flow

The liquid flow is smooth and uniform.

The velocity of the fluid at a point remains constant with respect to time.

The streamlines do not cross each other.

The equipotential lines do not cross each other.

Eulerian Velocity is time independent

The Reynolds Number can be used to determine the state of fluid flow.
:

R_e < 1000

1000 : Unsteady Flow

:

R_e > 2000

: Turbulent Flow
