Types of fluid flow On the basis of different flow conditions, fluid flow can be classified into various types. Viscous and inviscid flow One the basis of viscosity of fluid (in flow) we can classify fluid flows into two types. Viscous Inviscid (Non-Viscous) In viscous flow, the resistance provided by viscosity is considerable. In Inviscid… Read More »

What is a fluid? Before discussing fluids let’s first discuss phases of matter. Matter around us exists in three phases, excluding plasma. Plasma is superheated matter – so hot that the electrons are ripped away from the atoms forming an ionized gas. There three phases of matter are Solid Liquid Gas From the above three… Read More »
