Formula(s) and Quantity(-ies)

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\partial \overrightarrow{u}}{\partial t}+\overrightarrow{u}\cdot \mathrm{\nabla }\overrightarrow{u}-\nu {\mathrm{\nabla }}^2\overrightarrow{u}& =-\frac{1}{\rho }\mathrm{\nabla }h\\ \mathrm{\nabla }\cdot \overrightarrow{u}& =0\end{array}$

$\nu$ represents kinematic viscosity

$u$ represents fluid velocity

$h$ represents fluid pressure

$\rho$ represents fluid mass density

$t$ represents time
