Difference between Moving Wall and Moving Boundary

Finbar · January 12, 2018, 10:02

Hi,

I am wondering if there is any difference between a moving wall and moving boundary, or if these terms are used interchangeably?

From the research I have completed on the topic I cannot find an exact definition for a moving boundary, my best guess for the difference between the two is that fluid may pass through a moving wall but not a moving wall.

Thanks,
Finbar.
