Elongational Flow

Elongational Flow is a type of viscous flow in which fluid elements undergo stretching or extension along one or more principal axes, distinguished from shear flow by the divergence or convergence of streamlines resulting in a rate of strain tensor dominated by extensional deformation rather than rotational or shear components.
