What is static pressure, total pressure and dynamic pressure?

In this video, we'll explore three key concepts: static pressure, total pressure, and dynamic pressure.

First, let's start with static pressure. This is the pressure exerted by a fluid at rest. Total pressure, which is the sum of the static pressure and the dynamic pressure. It is the pressure a moving fluid exerts when it is brought to rest isentropically. The dynamic pressure is the pressure exerted by a fluid in motion. It's the type of pressure that makes a wind turbine turn or a rocket fly. By adding the static pressure and dynamic pressure together, we get the total pressure, which is a measure of the total energy of the fluid.

Dynamic pressure is the difference between the total pressure and the static pressure. This pressure is proportional to the velocity of the fluid and is crucial for understanding fluid dynamics.

Please watch the video carefully to have a complete understanding of these concepts.
