Equation of Continuity for Compressible Fluids

Go Velocity of the fluid at 1 = (Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2*Velocity of the fluid at 2*Density 2)/(Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1*Density 1)

Equation of Continuity for Incompressible Fluids

Go Velocity of the fluid at 1 = (Cross-Sectional Area at Point 2*Velocity of the fluid at 2)/Cross-Sectional Area at Point 1

Cavitation Number

Go Cavitation number = (Pressure-Vapour Pressure)/(Mass Density*(Fluid Velocity^2)/2)

Bulk Modulus given Volume Stress and Strain

Go Bulk Modulus = Volume Stress/Volumetric Strain

Stagnation Pressure Head Formula

Stagnation Pressure Head = Static Pressure Head+Dynamic Pressure Head
h_o = h_s+h_d

what is a stagnation pressure?

In fluid dynamics, stagnation pressure (or pitot pressure) is the static pressure at a stagnation point in a fluid flow. At a stagnation point, the fluid velocity is zero. In an incompressible flow, stagnation pressure is equal to the sum of the free-stream static pressure and the free-stream dynamic pressure.
