👉 A guided fluid, often found in the context of fluid dynamics and engineering, refers to a controlled stream of a liquid that is directed or guided through a specific path or system by external means, such as channels, pipes, or mechanical devices. This fluid can be used for various purposes, including cooling in heat exchangers, lubrication in machinery, or as a transport medium in chemical processes. The guidance ensures that the fluid moves efficiently and uniformly, minimizing turbulence and energy loss, thereby enhancing the overall performance and effectiveness of the system it is part of.
