The Navier-Stokes equations are a system of non-linear, partial-differential equations that describe fluid flows. In the incompressible limit, the density of the fluid may be regarded as a constant, and the system of equations becomes, Because of the non-linearities, there are very few exact solutions that are known for these equations. One of the exact solutions is pressure-driven channel (or pipe) flow, also known as Poiseuille flow. In this flow, all solid, no-slip walls are parallel to the x-axis, and...
