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 ...
The initial and the no-slip condition on the wall are (,) =, (, >) =, (, >) =, the last condition is due to the fact that the motion at = is not felt at infinity. The flow is only due to the motion of the plate, there is no imposed pressure gradient.
The self-similar solution of the second kind also appears in different contexts such as in boundary-layer problems subjected to small perturbations, [8] as was identified by Keith Stewartson, [9] Paul A. Libby and Herbert Fox. [10] Moffatt eddies are also a self-similar solution of the second kind.
The initial, no-slip condition on the wall is (,) = , (,) =, and the second boundary condition is due to the fact that the motion at = is not felt at infinity. The flow is only due to the motion of the plate, there is no imposed pressure gradient.
The solution is = + + Since u needs to be finite at r = 0, c 1 = 0. The no slip boundary condition at the pipe wall requires that u = 0 at r = R (radius of the pipe), which yields c 2 = GR 2 / 4μ . Thus we have finally the following parabolic velocity profile:
This page needs a simple and yet complex explanation of no slip condition, as it is only those who know a thing or two about fuild flow will understand this page, and i don't mean know a thing or two as in the water flows down the pipe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.79.15.101 21:00, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
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 ...
The Navier–Stokes equations are strictly a statement of the balance of momentum. To fully describe fluid flow, more information is needed, how much depending on the assumptions made. This additional information may include boundary data (no-slip, capillary surface, etc.), conservation of mass, balance of energy, and/or an equation of state.
