Integral form

Differential form

(1)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt} \iiint_\Omega \rho \, dV =0\end{array}$

(2)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} + \nabla (\rho \, {\bf u}) = 0\end{array}$

where

$\begin{array}{l}\rho\end{array}$	continuum body spatial density distribution
$\begin{array}{l}\bf u\end{array}$	continuum body spatial velocity distribution

For the stationary fluid flow:

(3)	$\begin{array}{l}\displaystyle \frac{\partial \rho}{\partial t} = 0 \rightarrow \nabla (\rho \, {\bf u}) = 0\end{array}$
