Define the Navier-Stokes equations.
Think about the conservation of mass and momentum.
What is a Newtonian fluid?
Focus on how viscosity behaves in Newtonian fluids.
What do Navier-Stokes equations describe?
Identifying the common fluid behaviors can help.
Is a Newtonian fluid characterized by changing viscosity?
Recall the definition of Newtonian fluid properties.
Describe a scenario where fluid flow transitions between laminar and turbulent. Explain the impact on the fluid equations used.
Consider how Reynolds number factors into flow transitions.
Given a problem where a fluid flows through two different mediums with varying viscosities, formulate the boundary conditions to be used.
Think about the properties of the fluids involved.
