Though compressibility and viscosity are assumed to be negligible, this principle can be applied even if compressibility is non- negligible, but only at low Mach numbers.
It is the basis for the Venturi effect and devices like the orifice plate, and when combined with an understanding of aerodynamics, it helps explain the principle of flight. Though compressibility and viscosity are assumed to be negligible, this principle can be applied even if compressibility is non- negligible, but only at low Mach numbers. Considered an equivalent statement of the law of conservation of energy, it states that the total mechanical energy of a fluid is equal the sum of the energy from the fluid pressure and the potential and kinetic energies of the fluid. FTP, name this 1738 principle which demonstrates the inverse relationship between flow pressure and velocity.
