	as the gap size depends on kinematic viscosity, entrance speed of the fluid and the relative disc diameter, its better to use a trapezoid profile for the discs. The laminar boundary ~~thikness~~ could be better used. Therefore friction should raise. This was inspired by the formula		as the gap size depends on kinematic viscosity, entrance speed of the fluid and the relative disc diameter, its better to use a trapezoid profile for the discs.
