Which situation violates the Continuity Equation for incompressible flow?
- A Laminar flow through a pipe
- B Turbulent flow through a pipe
- C Flow through a converging nozzle
- D Blockage in a pipe
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
A blockage in a pipe disrupts the flow and violates the Continuity Equation by causing mass imbalance. In incompressible flow, the Continuity Equation requires that the mass flow rate into a control volume equals the mass flow rate out of the control volume, which is not possible if there is a blockage in the pipe.
