👉 A pipe fluid, also known as a fluid transport medium or simply fluid, refers to the substance that is carried through pipes or other conduits for various purposes such as heating, cooling, or chemical transport. It can be a liquid, a gas, or a slurry of both, and is typically selected based on its compatibility with the system components, its ability to efficiently transport the desired substance, and its physical properties like viscosity and density. Common examples include water, oil, steam, and chemical solutions, each suited for specific applications in industries ranging from HVAC systems to power generation and manufacturing processes.
