Abstract
The theory of polar fluids, briefly reviewed and shown to be identical to the theory of micropolar fluids, is applied to five different viscometric flows and to the flow around a slowly rotating sphere. Comparing theoretical predictions with experimental results for the viscometric flows it is demonstrated that the theory may serve as a model for the flow of suspensions if a velocity slip along a solid wall is accounted for.
