The sudden expansion and contraction flows shown in figure 12 graphically ... Friction is the source of the irreversibility of fluid flow: either through the formation of boundary layers over the ...

If nothing else enters into the equation, the expansion and contraction are equal and opposite — no net flow results. However, as the viscosity of the fluid (water in this case) is temperature ...

Editor’s note: The Basics department this month is an excerpt from the ISA book Flow of Industrial Fluids – Theory and Equations by Raymond Mulley. Some material in this section may seem self-evident ...

While chemical signals such as morphogens have been known for a long time, fluid transport has recently emerged as another potential way to globally organize cell behavior during morphogenesis (Navis ...
