An analysis on entrance region effect of the laminar radial flow between two parallel disks (Q761895)

The Golubef method is used for calculating the radial diffuse flow between two parallel disks for the first step. The momentum integral equation together with the energy integral equation is derived from the boundary layer momentum equation; and the expression of the second approximation explicit function in which the channel length of entrance region varies with the boundary layer thickness can be obtained by using Picard iteration in the solution of the energy integral equation.
