Modified pressure
 | This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (May 2015) |
Some systems in fluid dynamics involve a fluid being subject to conservative body forces. Since a conservative body force is the gradient of some potential function, it has the same effect as a gradient in fluid pressure.[1] It is often convenient to define a modified pressure equal to the true fluid pressure plus the potential.
Examples of conservative body forces include gravity and the centrifugal force in a rotating reference frame.
