Osborne Reynolds(18421912), a British scientist and mathematician, was thefirst to distinguish the difference be-tween these two classifications of flow by using a simple apparatus as shown in 1: (a) Reynolds experiment using water in a pipe to study transition to turbulence, (b) Typ-ical dye streake1If water runs through a pipe of diameter D with an average velocity V, the following charac-teristics are observed by injecting neutrally buoyant dye as shown. For small enough flow ratesthe dye streak (a streakline) will remain as a well-defined line as it flows along, with only slightblurring due to molecular diffusion of the dye into the surrounding water.
