Conservation of Mass Equation — Lesson 2

Industrial process plants such as oil refineries are mazes of ducts and pipes. How can we estimate that enough oil goes in the right pipe, or if there is a leak?

All these questions can be answered by applying the conservation of mass. Let's find out the importance of this equation and how we can recast it in different useful forms.
