ABSTRACT In this paper, I will define and explain a closed system and provide an example. I will define and explain an open system and provide an example for it. I will also be explaining the inner and outer flows for both the closed and the open systems. I will then define and explain the leakages in an open system and define and explain the injections in an open system. Lastly, I will provide a personal example of a leakage and describe and explain it. I will also provide a personal example of an injection and describe and explain it to.
