Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

We consider a laminar, stratified flow for a two-phase medium in inclined pipes of variable cross-section. Unsteady flows in pipes of variable cross-section, as a rule, are carried out on the basis of quasi-stationary equations obtained by averaging the Navier-Stokes equations over the entire cross section of the pipe. Based on the results of numerical simulation of a two-phase flow in an inclined pipe, mean cross-sectional velocities of phases and average frictional stresses for each of the liquids in interaction with the pipe walls and with each other are determined.
