Wpływ sił bezwładności na przepływ cieczy lepkiej w szczelinie między powierzchniami obrotowymi: nieruchomą i wirującą

Edward Walicki
In this paper is considered the steady laminar flow of viscous fluid through a slot between the fixed and rotating surfaces of revolution having a common axis of symmetry. The boundary layer equations are expressed in terms of the intrinsic curvilinear orthogonal coordinate system linked with one of these surfaces. The method of perturbation is used to solve the boundary layer equations. As a result, the formulae defining such parameters of the flow as the velocity components and pressure are obtained.
