Integral momentum equation (Reynolds transport theorem form)
Differential form → Navier–Stokes equations: ρ(∂V/∂t + V·∇V) = −∇p + μ∇^2V + ρg + body forces
Special cases: Euler equations (inviscid), creeping flow (Stokes flow, Re → 0)

Headline: Simplifying Experiments
Core Concept: Buckingham Pi Theorem (Π theorem)
Common Dimensionless Parameters:
- Reynolds Number (Re): ( \rho V L / \mu ) (inertia/viscous forces)
- Froude Number (Fr): ( V / \sqrtgL ) (inertia/gravity forces)
- Euler Number (Eu): ( \Delta P / (\rho V^2) ) (pressure/inertia)
- Mach Number (Ma): ( V / c ) (compressibility effects)
Speaker Notes:
- "Instead of testing a full-sized airplane, you test a scale model. If Re, Fr, and Ma match between model and prototype, the flow is similar. This saves millions of dollars."
