What is viscous flow between two parallel plates?

The viscous flow between parallel plates is considered from the relation of Couette flow which is the flow between two parallel plates. It is the flow of a viscous fluid in the space between two surfaces, one of which is moving tangentially relative to the other.

What is viscous flow or laminar flow?

Laminar flow is characterized by smooth or in regular paths of particles of the fluid. Therefore the laminar flow is also referred to as streamline or viscous flow.

How to Calculate Difference of Pressure for Viscous Flow between Two Parallel Plates?
