The Oseen equations are a set of equations that describe the steady-state flow of a viscous fluid. They can be seen as a linearization of the Navier-Stokes equations, which govern the motion of fluid substances. The Oseen equations are particularly useful in the study of low Reynolds number flows, where inertial forces are negligible compared to viscous forces.
