In fluid dynamics, laminar flow (or streamline flow) occurs when a fluid flows in parallel layers, with no disruption between the layers. At low velocities, the fluid tends to flow without lateral mixing, and adjacent layers slide past one another like playing cards. There are no cross-currents perpendicular to the direction of flow, nor eddies or...

Nonturbulent flow in parallel layers that have different velocities. The term laminar flow describes one of the three types of behavior that a boundary layer can exhibit.
