It won't be on the exam, but if you are curious to go through today's material on fluid dynamics at a bit more leisurely pace, I've written up some notes.
UPDATE: I did some cleaning up of the notes. I added quite a bit on fluid rotation (like what curve describes the shape of water going through a drain), and also added a few examples. Specifically, I showed how the Hall effect (current flow in the presence of a magnetic field) requires a tensor conductivity, and treated the case of steady flow through a cylindrical pipe. The latter is a rare example of an analytical solution to the Navier-Stokes equations (given a good number of reasonable assumptions), and quite practical.
The updated notes are in the same location linked above.
No, it is still not going to be on the final, it is just cool. ;-)
