Effects of nonlocal hydromechanics in a flow in thin channels

Аннотация

An approach to viscous friction is described as nonlocal momentum exchange between different layers of a fluid. The Navier−Stokes equations are replaced by pseudo-differential equations hyperbolic in time. In this case, instead of zero velocity on the boundary, a nonlocal nonlinear boundary condition is set in the form of the velocity dependence of the coefficient before the intensity of the momentum exchange with the boundary. The non-newtonian character of the viscosity of water is shown in experiments with thin insulin needles and explained by the nonlinear character of the momentum exchange of water with the boundary. The calculations agree very well both with our experiments and with the experiments of other authors. Calculations show that the flow decreases more than one-and-a-half times in comparison with the Poiseuille flow for channels with a diameter of 360−390 μm, which is confirmed in experiments.
