  2. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    Bernoulli's principle is a key concept in fluid dynamics that relates pressure, density, speed and height. Bernoulli's principle states that an increase in the speed of a parcel of fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in either the pressure or the height above a datum. [1]:

  3. Bernoulli distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli_distribution

    The Bernoulli distribution is a special case of the binomial distribution with = [4] The kurtosis goes to infinity for high and low values of p , {\displaystyle p,} but for p = 1 / 2 {\displaystyle p=1/2} the two-point distributions including the Bernoulli distribution have a lower excess kurtosis , namely −2, than any other probability ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Bernoulli differential equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Bernoulli_differential_equation

    Bernoulli equations are special because they are nonlinear differential equations with known exact solutions. A notable special case of the Bernoulli equation is the logistic differential equation . Transformation to a linear differential equation

  6. Lift (force) - Wikipedia

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

    A solution of the potential equation directly determines only the velocity field. The pressure field is deduced from the velocity field through Bernoulli's equation. Comparison of a non-lifting flow pattern around an airfoil; and a lifting flow pattern consistent with the Kutta condition in which the flow leaves the trailing edge smoothly

  7. Siphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon

    Bernoulli's equation is considered in the scientific literature to be a fair approximation to the operation of the siphon. In non-ideal fluids, compressibility, tensile strength and other characteristics of the working fluid (or multiple fluids) complicate Bernoulli's equation.

  8. Flow distribution in manifolds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_distribution_in_manifolds

    Eq.2b is a fundamental equation for most of discrete models. The equation can be solved by recurrence and iteration method for a manifold. It is clear that Eq.2a is limiting case of Eq.2b when ∆X → 0. Eq.2a is simplified to Eq.1 Bernoulli equation without the potential energy term when β=1 whilst Eq.2 is simplified to Kee's model [6] when β=0

  9. Euler–Bernoulli beam theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler–Bernoulli_beam_theory

    Besides deflection, the beam equation describes forces and moments and can thus be used to describe stresses. For this reason, the Euler–Bernoulli beam equation is widely used in engineering, especially civil and mechanical, to determine the strength (as well as deflection) of beams under bending.
