In an incompressible flow of fluid, the fluid ________________?

Correct answer: A. Density does not change with pressure & temperature

  • A. Density does not change with pressure & temperature
  • B. Compressibility is greater than zero
  • C. Temperature remains constant
  • D. Is frictionless

Explanation

Incompressible flow assumes that fluid density remains essentially constant despite changes in pressure and temperature. Constant temperature or frictionless motion is not implied by incompressibility.
