Simulation of Lubricated Squeezing Flow of a Herschel-Bulkley Fluid Under Constant Force

Lubricated squeezing flow (LSF) of a Herschel-Bulkley fluid between parallel disks under constant force was theoretically analyzed. An analytical expression for the fluid thickness as a function of time was obtained in terms of a hypergeometric function. The fluid thickness profiles in LSF were simu...
