Regime
Set by the slip length — the wall the fluid actually moves on, rather than the one it touches
Every figure drawn under this hypothesis — 4 of them — with the essay each one belongs to and the generator that drew it.
4 figure placements state this regime. The strip along the foot of every figure names two things — the model that produced it and the regime it holds in — and this listing is read back out of the finished drawing rather than from what produced it.
- A length you can only measure by squeezing — a continuous film of a second fluid at the wall, thin against the gap · bearing-film
- A length you can only measure by squeezing — Navier slip on both surfaces — the sphere-and-plane drainage problem · bearing-film
- The wall a melt really does slip on — an entangled melt sliding on a smooth solid — no adsorption, no chemistry · what-viscosity-is
- The wall a melt really does slip on — isothermal, fully developed, laminar — the slip law's constants are stated rather than measured · what-viscosity-is
