Conservation of Continuity

A principle notion is that potential energy and kinetic energy must remain constant throughout the system

This principle is the Conservation of Continuity, in which a vessel’s energy of fluid is constant


Bernoulli’s Principle

Bernoulli’s Principle is the based on the Conservation of Energy

The equation tells us that an increase in the speed of a flowing fluid will have an outcome of a decrease in pressure
