  2. Euler equations (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_equations_(fluid...

    Arnold–Beltrami–Childress flow – an exact solution of the incompressible Euler equations. Two solutions of the three-dimensional Euler equations with cylindrical symmetry have been presented by Gibbon, Moore and Stuart in 2003. [29] These two solutions have infinite energy; they blow up everywhere in space in finite time.

  3. Free molecular flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_molecular_flow

    Gas flow can be grouped in four regimes: For Kn≤0.001, flow is continuous, and the Navier–Stokes equations are applicable, from 0.001<Kn<0.1, slip flow occurs, from 0.1≤Kn<10, transitional flow occurs and for Kn≥10, free molecular flow occurs. [6] In free molecular flow, the pressure of the remaining gas can be considered as effectively ...

  4. Rayleigh problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_problem

    In fluid dynamics, Rayleigh problem also known as Stokes first problem is a problem of determining the flow created by a sudden movement of an infinitely long plate from rest, named after Lord Rayleigh and Sir George Stokes. This is considered as one of the simplest unsteady problems that have an exact solution for the Navier-Stokes equations.

  5. Computational methods for free surface flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_methods_for...

    In physics, a free surface flow is the surface of a fluid flowing that is subjected to both zero perpendicular normal stress and parallel shear stress.This can be the boundary between two homogeneous fluids, like water in an open container and the air in the Earth's atmosphere that form a boundary at the open face of the container.

  6. Self-similar solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-similar_solution

    The normal self-similar solution is also referred to as a self-similar solution of the first kind, since another type of self-similar exists for finite-sized problems, which cannot be derived from dimensional analysis, known as a self-similar solution of the second kind.

  7. Freeflow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeflow

    Freeflow (also free flow and free-flow) in underwater diving apparatus is a continuous flow of gas from a storage or supply unit. In scuba diving it is usually undesirable and considered a malfunction, while in surface supplied diving it may be a malfunction or a user selected option in demand systems, or the standard mode of operation in freeflow systems.

  8. Taylor–Green vortex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor–Green_vortex

    The small time behavior of the flow is then found through simplification of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations using the initial flow to give a step-by-step solution as time progresses. An exact solution in two spatial dimensions is known, and is presented below. Animation of a Taylor-Green Vortex using colour coded Lagrangian tracers

  9. Boundary conditions in fluid dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_conditions_in...

    Showing wall boundary condition. The most common boundary that comes upon in confined fluid flow problems is the wall of the conduit. The appropriate requirement is called the no-slip boundary condition, wherein the normal component of velocity is fixed at zero, and the tangential component is set equal to the velocity of the wall.
