It involves something known as 'Bernoulli's principle', which is worth further discussion. Bernoulli's principle is a description of how gases and liquids (fluids) behave. It says that within a ...

Swiss scientist, Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782), demonstrated that, in most cases, the pressure in a liquid or gas decreases as the liquid or gas moves faster. This explains in part why a wing lifts ...

How useful is Bernoulli's equation? How restrictive are the assumptions governing its use? Here we give some examples. Consider the steady, flow of a constant density fluid in a converging duct, ...
