Abstract
Historically two types of motion of fluids are distinguished — LAMINAR and TURBULENT. Laminar is the motion with regular velocity in space and time, which can be described by well behaved functions of \(\left( {\vec x,t} \right) = \left( {x,y,z,t} \right)\), e.g. trigonometric ones or represented graphically by smooth curves. Turbulent is the motion with highly irregular velocity in the \(\left( {\vec x,t} \right)\), space-time occupied by the flow and mathematically is described by random functions, requiring probabilistic (stochastic) methods for studying.
