Bernoulli's Equation
Common name for the fluid energy equation. An energy balance equation demonstrating the conservation of three major states - static pressure energy, kinetic energy (velocity pressure) and potential energy. Also referred to as Bernoulli’s Principle. Daniel Bernoulli presented the Bernoulli’s theorem in 1738;

Bernoulli’s theorem is for a frictionless incompressible fluid. However, it can be applied to real incompressible fluids with good results in situations where frictional effects are very small.
