  2. No-slip condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-slip_condition

    The no-slip condition is an empirical assumption that has been useful in modelling many macroscopic experiments. It was one of three alternatives that were the subject of contention in the 19th century, with the other two being the stagnant-layer (a thin layer of stationary fluid on which the rest of the fluid flows) and the partial slip (a finite relative velocity between solid and fluid ...

  3. Boundary layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_layer

    In physics and fluid mechanics, a boundary layer is the thin layer of fluid in the immediate vicinity of a bounding surface formed by the fluid flowing along the surface. The fluid's interaction with the wall induces a no-slip boundary condition (zero velocity at the wall). The flow velocity then monotonically increases above the surface until ...

  4. Stokes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_problem

    which is zero at the wall y = 0, corresponding with the no-slip condition for a wall at rest. This situation is often encountered in sound waves near a solid wall, or for the fluid motion near the sea bed in water waves. The vorticity, for the oscillating flow near a wall at rest, is equal to the vorticity in case of an oscillating plate but of ...

  5. Dirichlet boundary condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirichlet_boundary_condition

    The question of finding solutions to such equations is known as the Dirichlet problem. In the sciences and engineering, a Dirichlet boundary condition may also be referred to as a fixed boundary condition or boundary condition of the first type. It is named after Peter Gustav Lejeune Dirichlet (1805–1859). [1]

    The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) [1] is a non-governmental privately held national-level [2] [3] board of school education in India that conducts the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Examination for Class X and the Indian School Certificate (ISC) for Class XII. [4]

  7. Talk:No-slip condition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:No-slip_condition

    For a viscous fluid, the no slip boundary condition can't be justified from first principles. It is still an open question in science. For viscous fluid flow, it fits almost all macroscopic observations and so it is simply accepted in most fluid mechanics texts books but it is still only an empirical observation, not a fundamental law.

  8. Strain-rate tensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain-rate_tensor

    A two-dimensional flow that, at the highlighted point, has only a strain rate component, with no mean velocity or rotational component. In continuum mechanics, the strain-rate tensor or rate-of-strain tensor is a physical quantity that describes the rate of change of the strain (i.e., the relative deformation) of a material in the neighborhood of a certain point, at a certain moment of time.

  9. Slip ratio (gas–liquid flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ratio_(gas–liquid_flow)

    There are a number of correlations for slip ratio. For homogeneous flow, S = 1 (i.e. there is no slip). The Chisholm correlation [2] [3] is: = The Chisholm correlation is based on application of the simple annular flow model and equates the frictional pressure drops in the liquid and the gas phase.
