Abstract

We present an analytical model of Stokes creeping flows in rectangular cavities. In the model, the fluid normal velocity at the wall is zero, while the fluid tangential velocity at the wall differs from the wall velocity. Numerical work is used to validate some of the ideas generated from this realizable model. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
