    diffusiophoresis, as motion of particles under influence of a chemical potential gradient; capillary osmosis, as motion of liquid in porous body under influence of the chemical potential gradient; sedimentation potential, as electric field generated by sedimenting colloid particles;

  3. Dynamic similarity (Reynolds and Womersley numbers)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_similarity...

    The Reynolds and Womersley Numbers are also used to calculate the thicknesses of the boundary layers that can form from the fluid flow’s viscous effects. The Reynolds number is used to calculate the convective inertial boundary layer thickness that can form, and the Womersley number is used to calculate the transient inertial boundary thickness that can form.

  4. Multiphase flow - Wikipedia

    The pressure force acts on an area or surface elements and accelerates the fluid in the downwards direction of the pressure gradient. The pressure difference between the beginning and the end of the pressure gradient is known as the pressure drop. The Darcy-Weisbach equation can be utilised to calculate pressure drop in a channel.

  5. Fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluid_dynamics

    In physics, physical chemistry and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids – liquids and gases.It has several subdisciplines, including aerodynamics (the study of air and other gases in motion) and hydrodynamics (the study of water and other liquids in motion).

  6. Marangoni effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marangoni_effect

    The surface tension gradient can be caused by concentration gradient or by a temperature gradient (surface tension is a function of temperature). In simple cases, the speed of the flow u ≈ Δ γ / μ {\displaystyle u\approx \Delta \gamma /\mu } , where Δ γ {\displaystyle \Delta \gamma } is the difference in surface tension and μ ...

    Andrew Luck's retirement is still one of the more stunning moments in recent NFL history. It was also not an easy process for the man himself.

    Then, a second pump wave reads the recorded signal and produces the conjugate wave. All those waves have the same frequency. In parametric pumping, the parameters of the medium are modulated by the pump wave at double frequency. The interaction of this perturbation with the incident wave will produce the conjugate wave.

    "It was just circling, and circling. You could see it wasn't completely frozen over, so I panicked," Felicani said. "Then I heard the crackling and was like, 'he's going in.'"
