Convective and Local Acceleration

Convective acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity due to the change of position of fluid particles in a fluid flow. Local acceleration or Temporal acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity with respect to time at a given point in a flow field. This document defines and distinguishes between convective acceleration and local acceleration in fluid dynamics.
