Term: Bernoulli's Equation
Definition: An equation that relates the pressure, velocity, and elevation of a fluid in steady flow, indicating that the total mechanical energy remains constant along a streamline.
Term: Control Volume
Definition: A defined region in space through which fluid flows, allowing the analysis of mass and energy exchanges across its boundaries.
Term: Mass Conservation
Definition: A principle stating that the mass of fluid entering a control volume must equal the mass of fluid leaving that control volume in steady flow conditions.
Term: Momentum Flux
Definition: The rate of flow of momentum across a given surface, used to calculate forces acting on control volumes primarily under dynamic conditions.
