Bernaullis Equation
This is Bernoullis equation for an incompressible fluid, i.e. a fluid that cannot
be compressed or expanded, and for which the density is invariable.
First term is the internal energy of unit mass of the air, v is the kinetic energy
of unit mass and gz is the potential energy of unit mass. Thus, Bernoullis
equation in this form is a statement of the principle of conservation of energy in
the absence of heat exchanged and work done.
