Fluid flow friction factors serve as a cornerstone in understanding and predicting the resistance encountered by fluids moving through conduits. These dimensionless parameters are essential in both ...

Sometimes, the most complex problems can be solved with the simplest approaches. Such was the case for researchers as they tried to resolve a longstanding issue of fluid friction -- the resistance ...

For 15 years, scientists have been baffled by the mysterious way water flows through the tiny passages of carbon nanotubes — pipes with walls that can be just one atom thick. The streams have ...

Although they might share similar purposes, you can't swap or mix CVT fluid and Automatic Transmission Fluid due to their ...

Rig-site fluid test automation has lagged automated drilling technology and is now a bottleneck to real-time drilling diagnostics and decisions. A new automated mud skid (AMS) addresses this gap by ...

Car maintenance can be as difficult as it is messy. This is primarily because there are just so many fluids involved. Fluids of the darkest, stickiest, most potentially dangerous sort, in many cases.
