  2. Correction fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correction_fluid

    A correction fluid is an opaque, usually white fluid applied to paper to mask errors in text. Once dried, it can be handwritten or typed upon. It is typically packaged in small bottles, with lids attached to brushes (or triangular pieces of foam) that dip into the fluid. The brush applies the fluid to the paper.

  3. Wite-Out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wite-Out

    New problems arose: a separate bottle of thinner was required, and the solvent used was known to contribute to ozone depletion. The company addressed these problems in July 1990 with the introduction of a reformulated "For Everything" correction fluid.

  4. Liquid Paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_Paper

    Liquid Paper is an American brand of the Newell Brands company marketed internationally that sells correction fluid, correction pens, and correction tape. Mainly used to correct typewriting in the past, correction products now mostly cover handwriting mistakes.

  5. Navier–Stokes equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Navier–Stokes_equations

    Continuum mechanics. The Navier–Stokes equations ( / nævˈjeɪ stoʊks / nav-YAY STOHKS) are partial differential equations which describe the motion of viscous fluid substances. They were named after French engineer and physicist Claude-Louis Navier and the Irish physicist and mathematician George Gabriel Stokes.

  6. SIMPLE algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIMPLE_algorithm

    In computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the SIMPLE algorithm is a widely used numerical procedure to solve the Navier–Stokes equations. SIMPLE is an acronym for Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure Linked Equations. The SIMPLE algorithm was developed by Prof. Brian Spalding and his student Suhas Patankar at Imperial College, London in the early ...

  7. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stokes'_law

    In fluid dynamics, Stokes' law is an empirical law for the frictional force – also called drag force – exerted on spherical objects with very small Reynolds numbers in a viscous fluid. It was derived by George Gabriel Stokes in 1851 by solving the Stokes flow limit for small Reynolds numbers of the Navier–Stokes equations .

  8. Oseen equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oseen_equations

    Oseen's work is based on the experiments of G.G. Stokes, who had studied the falling of a sphere through a viscous fluid. He developed a correction term, which included inertial factors, for the flow velocity used in Stokes' calculations, to solve the problem known as Stokes' paradox. His approximation leads to an improvement to Stokes ...

  9. Reynolds number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reynolds_number

    The Reynolds number is the ratio of inertial forces to viscous forces within a fluid that is subjected to relative internal movement due to different fluid velocities. A region where these forces change behavior is known as a boundary layer , such as the bounding surface in the interior of a pipe.

  10. Pressure-correction method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure-correction_method

    Pressure-correction method is a class of methods used in computational fluid dynamics for numerically solving the Navier-Stokes equations normally for incompressible flows. Common properties [ edit ] The equations solved in this approach arise from the implicit time integration of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations .

  11. Projection method (fluid dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projection_method_(fluid...

    In fluid dynamics, The projection method is an effective means of numerically solving time-dependent incompressible fluid-flow problems. It was originally introduced by Alexandre Chorin in 1967 as an efficient means of solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations.
