- 1. Water (p= 1000 kg m-³ and μ = 0.0011 kg m-¹ s-1) flows at 5 m s-1 over a 0.3 m long flat plat. Determine if the flow in the boundary layer is laminar over the entire length of the plat or it becomes turbulent at a downstream location. If latter is the case, determine the location of transition from laminar to turbulent. [Ans. BL flow is Laminar & turbulent, x = 0.11 m]arrow_forward4. Consider two-dimensional, laminar, unidirectional flow between parallel (spacing: 2h), vertical plates. One plate, to the left, is moving downward with constant velocity vi; the other is moving upward at a constant velocity v2. If we consider the fluid Newtonian, solve for the velocity profile using our newly defined Navier-Stokes Eqns.arrow_forwardThe laminar flow of water in a small pipe is given by where R = 0.5 cm is the pipe radius, and Umax = 20 cm/s. Assume the temperature is 15°C. (a) Find the wall shear stress. (b) Find the pressure drop in a 10 cm length of the pipe. (c) Verify that the flow is indeed laminar.arrow_forward
- As shown in the accompanying figure, a thin flat plate rests on top of a film of ambient temperature (i.e. 20 °C) water. When a small force F is applied to this plate, the velocity profile within the water film can be described as vx = 40y-800y² where y is the distance (m) from the bottom stationary plate. a. Show that velocity equation satisfies the 'no-slip' conditions that must exist for both the top moving plate and bottom stationary plate. b.
