Model of viscous fluid flow between two surfaces moving relative to each other
In fluid dynamics, Couette flow is the flow of a viscous fluid in the space between two surfaces, one of which is moving tangentially relative to the other. The relative motion of the surfaces imposes a shear stress on the fluid and induces flow. Depending on the definition of the term, there may also be an applied pressure gradient in the flow direction.
The Couette configuration models certain practical problems, like the Earth's mantle and atmosphere,[1] and flow in lightly loaded journal bearings. It is also employed in viscometry and to demonstrate approximations of reversibility.[2][3]
It is named after Maurice Couette, a Professor of Physics at the French University of Angers in the late 19th century.
