slow viscous flow between two closely spaced parallel plates, where the gap-averaged velocity follows a potential-flow-like law.

In fluid mechanics, Hele-Shaw flow refers to slow viscous flow between two closely spaced parallel plates, where the gap-averaged velocity follows a potential-flow-like law. This meaning comes from Hele-Shaw (1898) in Nature.[1]
