Principle of conservation of momentum

The principle of conservation of momentum or momentum theorem is a conservation law which states that all external forces acting on a fluid contained in an isolated environment (control volume) must be in equilibrium. It plays an important role in centrifugal pump engineering (see also Fluid mechanics). The principle of conservation of momentum represents the integral form of the Navier-Stokes equation.
