Abstract
This paper presents a role of the Navier number (Na-dimensionless slip-length) in universal modelling of flow reported in micro- and nano-channels like: capillary biological flows, fuel cell systems, micro-electro-mechanical systems and nano-electro-mechanical systems. Similar to another bulk-like and surface-like dimensionless numbers, the Na number should be treated as a ratio of internal viscous to external viscous momentum transport and therefore this notion cannot be extended onto whole friction resistance phenomena. Several examples of dimensionless number for liquids and rarified gasses flowing in solid cannels are presented. Additionally this article explains a role of the Navier number in prediction of closures for laminar to turbulent transition undergoing via eddies detachment from the slip layer in nano-channels.
