  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. Momentum diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum_diffusion

    A fluid flowing along a flat plate will stick to it at the point of contact and this is known as the no-slip condition. This is an outcome of the adhesive forces between the flat plate and the fluid. This is an outcome of the adhesive forces between the flat plate and the fluid.

  4. Von Kármán constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Von_Kármán_constant

    In fluid dynamics, the von Kármán constant (or Kármán's constant), named for Theodore von Kármán, is a dimensionless constant involved in the logarithmic law describing the distribution of the longitudinal velocity in the wall-normal direction of a turbulent fluid flow near a boundary with a no-slip condition.

  5. Rayleigh problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_problem

    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.

  6. Stokes problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_problem

    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.

  8. Cunningham correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cunningham_correction_factor

    In fluid dynamics, the Cunningham correction factor, or Cunningham slip correction factor (denoted C), is used to account for non-continuum effects when calculating the drag on small particles. The derivation of Stokes' law , which is used to calculate the drag force on small particles, assumes a no-slip condition which is no longer correct at ...

  9. Boundary layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_layer

    The no-slip condition requires the flow velocity at the surface of a solid object be zero and the fluid temperature be equal to the temperature of the surface. The flow velocity will then increase rapidly within the boundary layer, governed by the boundary layer equations, below.
