Res. req. can usually not be mixed with an actual physics question
Nov 21, 2020 at 11:40 comment added coby1kenobi Oh right! So the vector will just be arrows pointing away from the point source on one line, then the magnitude will determine the arrow's length? I suppose I can still use the NS equation since it's only one-dimensional which will make the solution much easier. That aside, may I ask for any sources you would recommend for Fick's laws of diffusion?

Nov 20, 2020 at 13:53 comment added BioPhysicist Yes you can, they will just be 1D vectors :)
Nov 20, 2020 at 13:49 comment added coby1kenobi Wait, I just realized that I cannot have a vector field for a single dimension.
Nov 20, 2020 at 13:15 comment added coby1kenobi I have looked into Fick's laws of diffusion, may I ask if you think that would be better? I wanted to try NS equations first because the fluid I am measuring is compressible. I also wanted to have a vector field as a solution. Other than that, it was really just arbitrary (probably not a good idea). I'll read up on it more. Are there any sources you would recommend?
Nov 20, 2020 at 12:37 comment added BioPhysicist Why do you think diffusion is described by the NS equation? Have you looked into Fick's laws of diffusion?
