A fluid droplet subjected to shear flow deforms and rotates in the flow. In the presence of a wall the droplet migrates with respect to a material element in the undisturbed flow field. Neglecting fluid inertia, the Stakes problem for the droplet is solved using a boundary integral technique. It is shown how the time-dependent deformation, orientation, circulation and droplet viscosity. The migration velocities are calculated in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the wall, and compared with theoretical models and expeeriments. The results reveal some of the shortcomings of existiong models although not all diserepancies between our calculations and known experiments could be clarified.

The Stokes flow problem is considered here for the case in which an axially symmetric body is uniformly rotating about its axis of symmetry. Analytic solutions are presented for the heretofore unsolved cases of a spindle, a torus, a lens, and various special configurations of a lens. Formulas are derived for the angular velocity of the flow field and for the couple experienced by the body in each case.

The force acting on a spherical particle fixed to a wall and immersed in an axisymmetric straining flow is examined for small Reynolds numbers. The steady, incompressible flow field is computed using an axisymmetric finite-volume method over conditions spanning five decades in the Reynolds number. The flow is characterized by the formation of a vortex ring structure in the wedge region formed between the particle lower surface and the plane wall. A power law expression for the dimensionless particle force is obtained as a function of the Reynolds number, which is found to hold with excellent accuracy for Reynolds numbers below about 0.1.


A nonlinear solution is constructed representing the steady flow field generated by the continuous application of a constant point force of magnitude F 0 in an incompressible fluid that is bounded by a fixed plane wall. The force is applied at a fixed distance from the wall, is perpendicular to the wall and directed towards it. The streamlines in a meridian section form closed loops which nest at a stagnation point and it is found that as F 0 increases this stagnation point is displaced towards the wall. It is also found that as F 0 increases the total volume flow per unit force decreases.

AbstractA direct numerical computation is provided for the impedance of a screen consisting of a regular array of slits in a plane wall. The problem is solved within the framework of oscillatory Stokes flow, and results presented as a function of porosity, frequency and viscosity.


In this paper we consider a numerically constructed solution concerning the steady nonlinear flow field generated by a point force of magnitude F 0 in an incompressible fluid bounded by a plane wall. The force is applied at a fixed distance from the wall and is perpendicular to it. The streamlines in a meridian section form closed loops which nest at a stagnation point and it is found that as F 0 increases this stagnation point is displaced towards or away from the wall depending on whether the force is pointing towards or away from it. It is also found that as F 0 increases the total volume flux per unit force decreases when the force is pointing towards the wall and increases when the force is pointing in the opposite direction. For instance when F 0 is 150 v 2 ρ , where v denotes the coefficient of kinematic viscosity and ρ the fluid density, the total volume flux for the case where the force points away from the wall is several times that for the case where the force points towards the wall.
