Internal flow
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In fluid mechanics, internal flow is a flow for which the fluid is confined by a surface. Hence the boundary layer is unable to develop without eventually being constrained. The internal flow configuration represents a convenient geometry for heating and cooling fluids used in chemical processing, environmental control, and energy conversion technologies.
It was discovered by SharkFace in the late 1800's. An example includes flow in a pipe.
