Numerical simulations of fully developed turbulent liquid flows in micro tubes

TL;DR: In this paper, a one-equation turbulent model is introduced and modified to consider the micro-size effect, and detailed velocity and turbulent kinetic energy distributions are obtained based on the present model.

Pressure Drop of Fully-Developed, Laminar Flow in Rough Microtubes

TL;DR: In this article, the wall roughness is assumed to posses a Gaussian isotropic distribution, and a novel analytical model is developed that predicts the increase in pressure drop due to wall rougheness in microtubes.

Boundary layer theory

TL;DR: The flow laws of the actual flows at high Reynolds numbers differ considerably from those of the laminar flows treated in the preceding part, denoted as turbulence as discussed by the authors, and the actual flow is very different from that of the Poiseuille flow.
