    Bernoullis Theorem

    It is customary to express the energy contained in a fluid in terms of the potential energy contained in an equivalent height or head of a column of the fluid. Using this convention, Bernoullis theorem breaks down the total energy at a point in terms of 1. The head due to its elevation above an arbitrary datum of zero potential energy. 2. A pressure head due to the potential energy contained in the pressure in the fluid at that point. 3. A velocity head due to the kinetic energy contained within the fluid. Assuming that no energy is added to the fluid by a pump or compressor, and that the fluid is not performing work as in a steam turbine, the law of conservation of energy requires that the energy at point 2 in the piping system downstream of point 1 must equal the energy at point 1 minus the energy loss to friction and change in elevation. Thus, Bernoullis theorem may be written:
