The incompressibility assumption is not required, but compressible flows are more difficult to work with and less common in chemical processes.
12.
In some fields, a measure of the incompressibility of a flow is the change in density as a result of the pressure variations.
13.
In computational fluid dynamics, for the solution of an incompressible flow problem, the incompressibility condition acts as a constraint for the pressure.
14.
This simple equation yields the entire solution for both \ vec { V } and p because of the constraint of irrotationality and incompressibility.
15.
In such submarine earthquakes, gravity and the incompressibility of water force the seas above to react immediately to the change thousands of feet below.
16.
Incompressibility rules out density and pressure waves like sound or shock waves, so this simplification is not useful if these phenomena are of interest.
17.
Here we have chosen a simplified version of the enstrophy derived from the incompressibility condition, which is equivalent to vanishing divergence of the velocity field,
18.
This theorem is required in a more complicated proof, where the incompressibility argument is used a number of times to show that the number of unlabeled graphs is
19.
The incompressibility of the gasoline means the tanks can be very lightly constructed, since the pressure inside and outside the tanks equalises and they are not required to withstand any pressure differential at all.
20.
He invented the notion of " end-incompressibility " and several of his students, such as Mark Brittenham, Charles Delman, and Rachel Roberts, have made important contributions to the theory.
