A flow field which has only convective acceleration is (A) a steady uniform flow (B) an unsteady uniform flow (C) a steady non-uniform flow (D) an unsteady non-uniform flow

1. (A)
2. (B)
3. (C)
4. (D)

Correct answer: (C)

Solution

A steady non-uniform flow indicates that the flow characteristics do not change over time (steady) but vary across different locations in the flow field (non-uniform), which aligns with the presence of convective acceleration.
