1949 H. F. P. Purday Streamline Flow i. 6 In laminar flow in the strict use of the term, the fluid moves in a system of parallel planes, the velocity having everywhere the same direction, but the magnitude of the velocity is a function of the distance from some fixed plane of the system. The motion is not necessarily steady; it may, for instance, be periodic.
