By solving the simpler problems explicitly it is then possible to reconstruct the general solution. 6.1 Fourier method This...

For mathematical simplicity, let’s just take it to be an infinite cylinder occupying r ≤ R. Suppose that at t = 0 the fluid and cylinder are spinning at an angula...

by a factor of 100 (roughly the difference between water and motor oil) then it will take roughly a factor of 100 shorter to spin down.

close to x = 0 they differ greatly. We call this the boundary layer. It arises because the small parameter E multiplies the highest derivative in the equation, and by ignoring this term we lower the order of the system and are unable to satisfy both boundary conditions.

4) where Re is the Reynolds number. For an airplane typical values are U =400mph, L=5m and ν=0.1cm2/s, giving Re = 108 .
