= Velocity triangle
{wiki=Velocity_triangle}
The velocity triangle is a concept used in the study of fluid mechanics, particularly in the analysis of turbomachinery such as pumps and turbines. It is a graphical representation that illustrates the relationships between different velocity components in a rotating machine. The triangle helps in understanding how the fluid interacts with the moving blades and how energy is transferred from the fluid to the machine or vice versa.
