From experimental data taken from the fluids bank, the simulations of both equations were evaluated, using free software Freefem++CS, which is based on the finite elements method. The evaluated variables are velocity and pression in a time interval. When analyzing the results obtained with the simulations and comparing them with the experimental data, it was found that the Navier-Stokes equations represent better the system, than the Stokes equation.</p>}, number={42}, journal={Revista Facultad de Ingeniería}, author={Guerra-Mazo, Miryam Lucía and García-Buitrago, María Vilma and Rodríguez-Acevedo, Elizabeth}, year={2016}, month={May}, pages={99–110} }
