Osborne Reynolds (August 23 1842 – February 23 1912) was the pioneer and main contributor of fundamental fluid dynamics. His scientific research on flow contributed to the Reynolds number, Reynolds analogy, Naiver-Stokes equation, Reynolds stress and Reynolds decomposition in order to predict the speed and mass of fluids at a given period of time.
