What is Laminar Flow?

Laminar flow is a type of fluid motion characterized by smooth, orderly layers of fluid sliding past one another with minimal mixing. In laminar flow, the fluid moves in parallel layers, and the flow velocity at any point remains constant over time. This type of flow typically occurs at low velocities and is described by a low Reynolds number, indicating that viscous forces dominate inertial forces. Laminar flow is often observed in situations such as the flow of oil through a pipe or blood flow in small vessels. It results in reduced friction and turbulence, leading to more efficient transport of fluids compared to turbulent flow.
