Eulerian and Lagrangian flow describe two fundamental frameworks for describing fluid flow. The Eulerian approach describes fluid motion from a fixed observer's perspective, observing how quantities like velocity change over time at a particular point in space. The Lagrangian approach tracks fluid properties as they move with the flow, observing how quantities change as a fluid parcel moves through space over time. Understanding these two perspectives is crucial for optimizing designs and solving problems involving fluid dynamics across many fields.
