Question

Transcribed Image Text:During industrial coating of a steel sheet, the paint head moves over the steel surface. There is also
a pressure drop due to the hydraulic pressure of the paint reservoir. This scenario is simplified in
Figure Q6, which illustrates a mixed Poiseuille-Couette flow scenario between two infinitely large
plates separated by a distance H. The bottom plate at y = 0 is stationary while the top plate at y = H
has a velocity v₂ = V. There is also a pressure drop in the x-direction, with P = Po at x = 0 and P = P₁ at
x = L.

Figure Q6: Mixed Poiseuille-Couette flow between infinite plates
Use the Navier-Stokes equations to derive an expression for the average fluid velocity in the
x-direction. Show your working. State all your assumptions, including justification of any
simplifications to the Navier-Stokes equations.
