✦ Synopsis

Concentrating on viscometry, the concept of (apparent) slip in rotational viscometers requires an angular slip velocity. This, as well as the customary concept of a slip velocity for unidirectional viscometric flow, is estimated by means of dimensional reasoning. It is demonstrated that slip is very well possible, despite the fact that experiments might indicate no slip.
