This chapter provides an overview of the principles of fluid mechanics with applications in the field of inkjet technology. The presentation is intended to be a survey of key topics. The topics covered include the basic properties of the fluids, underlying principles and equations that govern fluids in motion, computational methods for modeling fluid behavior, a brief overview of inkjet technology, and challenges in modeling inkjet systems. The chapter briefly reviews three key properties such as density, viscosity, and surface tension. In most conventional fluidic applications such as inkjet printing, one can adopt a continuum approximation wherein properties such as density, pressure, and velocity are well‐defined within infinitely small volumes and vary continuously from point to point. It also briefly discusses the key components and processes of inkjet systems, and the application of computational modeling for the rational design of these systems.
