What is the Principle of Continuity?

The continuity principle, or continuity equation, is the Principle of fluid mechanics. Stated, what flows into a defined volume in a specified time, minus what flows out of that volume in that time, must accumulate in that volume. If the sign of the accumulation is negative, then the material in that volume is being depleted.
