You can assume that the velocity between the plates is given by dx 1 dp и(у) -у (h — у) 2µ dx where u is the fluid viscosity, dp/dx is the pressure gradient and h is the gap between the plates. a) Derive an expression for the shear stress acting on the top plate, tw. b) Q' is the flow rate per unit width (i.e. has units of m² /s). Express Q' in terms of T, c) When the flow rate per unit width is Q' = 1.2 x 10-4 m² /s, the gap between the plates is 5 mm, the device estimates the shear stress at the top wall to be -0.05 Pa. Estimate the viscosity of the fluid. d) When the tests are repeated for a blood sample, different estimates of viscosity are found for different flowrates. What does this tell you about the viscosity of blood? Use appropriate terminology that was covered in the module. (1 sentence.) e) As the pressure gradient is increased, at a certain point the measurements cease to be reliable. Using your knowledge of fluid mechanics, give a possible reason for this. Use appropriate terminology that was covered in the module. (1 sentence.)

1. Water is moving through a pipe, and the laminar-flow velocity profile at some section along this pipe is [D² V = =42²-2²] 4μ where V is the velocity at any position y, ß is a constant, μ is the viscosity of water, D is the pipe diameter, and y is the radial distance from the pipe centerline. What is the shear stress in the fluid at the wall of the pipe? (Just use symbols). If the given profile persists a distance L along the pipe, what is the force on the wall due to the moving water and what is its direction? Hint: The force on the wall is equal in magnitude but in the opposite direction of that in the fluid.
A rotating viscometer consists of two concentric cylinders—an inner cylinder of radius Ri rotating at angular velocity (rotation rate) ?i, and a stationary outer cylinder of inside radius Ro. In the tiny gap between the two cylinders is the fluid of viscosity ? . The length of the cylinders (into the page in Fig is L. L is large such that end effects are negligible (we can treat this as a two-dimensional problem). Torque (T) is required to rotate the inner cylinder at constant speed. (a) Showing all of your work and algebra, generate an approximate expression for T as a function of the other variables. (b) Explain why your solution is only an approximation. In particular, do you expect the velocity profile in the gap to remain linear as the gap becomes larger and larger (i.e., if the outer radius Ro were to increase, all else staying the same)?

Let Bsys be the angular momentum H-› = r→ × mV-› of a system of fluid particles, where r → is the moment arm. We know that for a system, conservation of angular momentum is ∑M-›= d / dt H-›sys where Σ M-› is the net moment applied to the system. Use the RTT and the above equation to derive the equation of conservation of angular momentum for a control volume.
