About Flow Getting Flow Support / Contact Info Release History Home

Flow is a handy fluid dynamics app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The software implements 1D compressible flow equations, normal and oblique shock relations, laminar and turbulent flat plate boundary layer development, standard atmospehere modeling, and the gas properties of air at sea level. Flow is a great tool for aerospace engineers, mechanical engineers, students, and anyone else working in fluid dynamics. 1D Compressible Flow Equations Shock Relations Incompressible Flat Plate Boundary Layer 1976 US Standard Atmosphere Gas Properties of Air at Sea Level Getting Flow Flow is available at the iTunes App Store for $4.99.
