Define laminar flow.
(N/A) Laminar flow, also known as streamline flow, is a type of fluid flow in which the fluid particles move in smooth, well-defined paths or layers (streamlines) that do not cross each other.
In this type of flow, the velocity of the fluid at any given point remains constant over time.
Laminar flow typically occurs at low velocities and is characterized by a low Reynolds number $(Re < 2000)$.
