  2. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    In fluid dynamics, Stokes' law gives the frictional force – also called drag force – exerted on spherical objects moving at very small Reynolds numbers in a viscous fluid. [1] It was derived by George Gabriel Stokes in 1851 by solving the Stokes flow limit for small Reynolds numbers of the Navier–Stokes equations .

  3. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    All coefficients are in general functions of temperature and composition, and they are called friction functions. In order to achieve high accuracy over a wide pressure and temperature ranges, it turned out that a second order term was needed even for non-polar molecules types such as hydrocarbon fluids in oil and gas reservoirs, in order to ...

  5. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's rate-dependent resistance to a change in shape or to movement of its neighboring portions relative to one another. [1] For liquids, it corresponds to the informal concept of thickness; for example, syrup has a higher viscosity than water. [2]

  6. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    Before choosing a formula it is worth knowing that in the paper on the Moody chart, Moody stated the accuracy is about ±5% for smooth pipes and ±10% for rough pipes. If more than one formula is applicable in the flow regime under consideration, the choice of formula may be influenced by one or more of the following: Required accuracy

  7. Newtonian fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian_fluid

    There is general formula for friction force in a liquid: The vector differential of friction force is equal the viscosity tensor increased on vector product differential of the area vector of adjoining a liquid layers and rotor of velocity: = where is the viscosity tensor.

  8. Stokes formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes_formula

    Stokes' formula can refer to: Stokes' law for friction force in a viscous fluid. Stokes' law (sound attenuation) law describing attenuation of sound in Newtonian liquids. Stokes' theorem on the integration of differential forms. Stokes' formula (gravity) a formula in geodesy

  9. Fanno flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanno_flow

    For this model, the duct area remains constant, the flow is assumed to be steady and one-dimensional, and no mass is added within the duct. The Fanno flow model is considered an irreversible process due to viscous effects. The viscous friction causes the flow properties to change along the duct.
