Incompressible FlowΒΆ
Ideal fluid
An ideal fluid is a model of fluids often used in fluid mechanics to approximate the behavior of real fluids. Ideal fluids are:
non-viscous, i.e. there is no internal resistance to flow;
in steady, or laminar, flow;
incompressible;
irrotational, i.e. its particles undergo no rotation around their center of mass.
