In an axial flow machine, fluids flow condition, that is flow pattern in a rotating flow passage changes its form and magnitude by the hydraulic resistance to the fluid flow in flow passage. Effect of centrifugal force becomes stronger with the increase of hydraulic resistance, and the flow rate becomes smaller. And, in the comparison of fluids flow condition among different axial flow machines...

Potential flows of incompressible fluids admit a pressure (Bernoulli) equation when the divergence of the stress is a gradient as in inviscid fluids, viscous fluids, linear viscoelastic fluids and second-order fluids. We show that the equation balancing drag and acceleration is the same for all these fluids independent of the viscosity or any viscoelastic parameter and that the drag is zero in ...

We examine a generalised Navier-Stokes theory applicable to fluids composed of non-spherical molecules. We compare the theoretical predictions for flow velocity and viscosity with results obtained from nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations of a fluid undergoing gravity fed flow down a rectangular channel. We study two different fluids: one composed of spherical particles and the ...

Similarity analysis is made of the three dimensional incompressible laminar boundary layer flow of general class of non-Newtonian fluids. This work is an extension of previous analysis by Na and Hansen (1967), where the similarity solution of laminar three dimensional boundary layer equations of Power-law fluids was investigated. For the present flow situation, it is observed that the similarly...
