Abstract
The basic continuity equation of Continuum Mechanics is given as:
d(rho)/dt + (rho)Div v = 0
where rho is the field density, and v is the mean velocity. If the field is incompressible this simplifies to:
(rho) Div v = 0
Since with the incompressible assumption, there can be no change in density. We can further simplify the equation by removing density (dividing it from both sides) we then get:
Div v = 0...
