Continuity Equation
In fluid dynamics, it states that the mass flow rate has to be constant from one cross-section of a pipe to another.
Flow Rate (Q)
The volume of fluid that passes through a given surface per unit time, usually expressed in cubic meters per second (m³/s).
Cross-sectional Area (A)
The area of the cross-section of a pipe or tube, through which fluid flows.
Velocity (V)
The speed of fluid flow at a given point in the pipe.
Volume (V)
The amount of space a fluid occupies, measured in cubic meters (m³).
