Talk:Stagnation point

Latest comment: 4 years ago by Bernard de Go Mars in topic Wrong definition of the stagnation point

I removed the following questionable passage from the article, and moved it here in case someone wants to try to salvage it:

Also, stagnates is when you have too many afferent ducts of liquid in a compartment and the amount of efferent ducts is less than the incoming. So the liquid stagnates or remain in the compartment for a while. An example of this is on the circulation of the lymph nodes where the lymph stagnates there allowing macrophages and lymphocytes time to carry out protective functions.

The above passage is totally irrelevant to stagnation point. Salih (talk) 12:51, 26 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Wrong definition of the stagnation point edit

Good morning all. Once we accept the "no slip condition", all the particles of a viscous fluid flow in contact with the body have a zero velocity. Your definition of stagnation point is therefore not valid. I had to correct my definition myself (in fr.wikipedia) with this in mind.
