Three significant concepts in fluid flow are: • the principle of conservation of mass, from which the equation of continuity is developed, • the principle of kinetic energy, from which certain flow equations are derived, and • the principle of momentum, from which equations evaluating dynamic forces exerted by flowing

fluids may be established.

Classify the flow of a fluid system 1.) Classification of Flow Related to Its Frictional Effects • laminar or turbulent 2.) Classifications of Dimensional Flow. • one-dimensional, two-dimensional, or three-dimensional 3.) Classification of Flow Based on Space and Time. • steady or unsteady • uniform or nonuniform
