When the inner cylinder is rotated at an angular velocity , it is found that one interface rises to a height H above the other. The gap between the cylinders is sufficiently thin (W<< R) that local Cartesian coordinates can be used, as shown on the right. (For clarity, the gap width is exaggerated on the left.) All of the following questions concern flow in the liquid, which is Newtonian with constant properties. g R+W Gas Ω Liquid R H y Enlargement of liquid-filled gap X W ΩR Fixed (a) Assuming steady, fully developed flow, determine Vx(y) in the liquid in terms of dp/dx. (At this point, dp/dx is unknown.) (b) Relate dIP/dx in the liquid to H. You can assume that the absolute pressure in the gas is nearly constant (P = Po) and that surface tension is negligible.
