A Study of an Inward Radial Flow Between Parallel Plates


Book Description

A theoretical analysis and reproduction in the laboratory of an inward radial flow to study its nonlinear behavior. "Theoretical expressions for the velocity profile (linear and nonlinear) and pressure profile (linear) are derived for a Newtonian fluid, and are compared with experimental results. An expression for the extensional viscosity is also derived for Newtonian and Power Law fluids."--Abstract.

Radial Flow Without Swirl Between Parallel Disks


Book Description

"An understanding of radial flow between confined boundaries is of practical importance in the design of, for example, radial diffusers and air bearings. To this end a combined experimental and theoretical study has been made of radial flow, without swirl, between parallel disks using air at incompressible speeds. Emphasis has been placed on the pressure distribution sufficiently far downstream of the channel inlet for the entry conditions to be unimportant. However a study has also been made of the main features of the flow near the inlet, particularly within the annular separation bubble." --
