释义
Navier–Stokes equation

Physics
  • An equation describing the flow of a Newtonian fluid. The Navier–Stokes equation can be written in the form

    ν/t+(νgrad)ν=1/ρgradp+η2ν,

    where v is the velocity, ρ‎ is the density, η‎ is the viscosity, and p is the pressure, respectively, of the fluid; ∇2 is the Laplace operator (see Laplace equation). The Navier–Stokes equation describes the flow of fluids, such as air and water, but is not suitable for describing the flow of non-Newtonian fluids. The equation can be derived using fluid mechanics or (in certain cases) from kinetic theory. It requires approximation techniques for a solution in all but the simplest problems. The Navier–Stokes equation was derived by the French engineer and scientist Claude-Louis-Marie-Henri Navier (1785–1836) and the British mathematician and physicist Sir George Gabriel Stokes (1819–1903) and also by the French mathematician Siméon-Denis Poisson (1781–1840) in the first half of the 19th century.
