  2. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates ... or even zero pressure, so clearly Bernoulli's equation ceases to be valid before zero ...

  3. Stagnation pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagnation_Pressure

    The Bernoulli equation applicable to incompressible flow shows that the stagnation pressure is equal to the dynamic pressure and static pressure combined. [1]: § 3.5 In compressible flows, stagnation pressure is also equal to total pressure as well, provided that the fluid entering the stagnation point is brought to rest isentropically.

  4. Stagnation point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stagnation_point

    In fluid dynamics, a stagnation point is a point in a flow field where the local velocity of the fluid is zero. [1]: § 3.2 The Bernoulli equation shows that the static pressure is highest when the velocity is zero and hence static pressure is at its maximum value at stagnation points: in this case static pressure equals stagnation pressure.

  6. 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 ...

  7. Lift (force) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_(force)

    A serious flaw common to all the Bernoulli-based explanations is that they imply that a speed difference can arise from causes other than a pressure difference, and that the speed difference then leads to a pressure difference, by Bernoulli's principle. This implied one-way causation is a misconception.

  8. Incompressible flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incompressible_flow

    But a solenoidal field, besides having a zero divergence, also has the additional connotation of having non-zero curl (i.e., rotational component). Otherwise, if an incompressible flow also has a curl of zero, so that it is also irrotational, then the flow velocity field is actually Laplacian.
