Reynolds Equation

Reynolds Equation: Derivation and Solution

12.11.2016 tribonet

Reynolds equation is a partial differential equation that describes the flow of a thin lubricant film between two surfaces. It is derived from the Navier-Stokes equations and is one of the fundamental equations of the […]
