Message	to remember my diff EQ's, or what order they were for fluid flow. But, I do know that at the contact between fluid and surface there is zero velocity. It is the "shear strength" of the liquid at the wall that takes energy to break and make the fluid flow. Also, I believe there is a finite distance out from the wall where flow velocity increases to a max, and then no matter how far from the wall you are, the velocity should be the same(in the "fully developed" flow zone). However, in a small(relatively) pipe like we are talking about I think that you wouldn't see that, only an increase in velocity until you hit the max at the center. The velocity profile is a parabola I beleive, from zero at the wall to max in the center. Mike ------------------------------------------------------
