Navier, Henri

Henry [ 157] solved the steady-flow continuity and Navier-Stokes equations in spherical geometry, neglecting inertial terms but including pressure and electrical force terms, coupled with Poisson s equation. The electrical force term in Henry s analysis consisted of the sum of the externally applied electric field and the field due to the double layers. His major assumptions are low surface potential (i.e., potentials less than approximately 25 mV) and undistorted double layers. The additional parameter ku appearing in the Henry... 

Claude Louis Marie Henri Navier, 1785-1836. French engineer, professor in Paris. 

By combining Eqs. (B.2)-(B.5), one obtains the Navier-Stokes equations (named after Claude Louis Marie Henri Navier und George Gabriel Stokes) in their Cartesian notation ...
