Outer pipe wall
Consider the steady, incompressible, laminar flow of a Newtonian fluid in
an infinitely long round pipe annulus of inner radius R, and outer radius
Ro. Assume that the pressure is constant everywhere there is no forced
pressure gradient driving the flow, Pi = P2. However, let the inner
cylinder be moving at steady velocity V to the right, essentially a piston.
The outer cylinder is stationary. This makes an axisymmetric Couette
flow. Use cylindrical coordinates and the equations of motion to generate
an expression for the x-component of velocity u as a function of r. Ignore
the effects of gravity.

(a) State the equation describing the condition at streamline boundary for a two-dimensional flow with velocity V and displacement ds
Using the equation, derive the equation of a streamline given by Eq. (4.1): ) (See attached images)
(b) A steady, incompressible, two-dimensional velocity field is given by Eq. (4.2) : (see attached images)
Where: the x- and y-coordinates are in metres and the magnitude of the velocity is in m/s. Calculate the material acceleration at the points of (x = 2, y= 3)
(a) In a variety of environmental problems, it is common to find fluid motions
that have a cellular character; i.e. the fluid streamlines form closed loops in
the form of a cell. An example of a 2D cellular flow is
ū = sin(rx) cos(ry)î – cos(rx) sin(ry)j
(i) Is this flow incompressible? (Justify you answer.)
(ii) Calculate the vorticity.
(iii) Where is the magnitude of the vorticity highest, and where does it
vanish?
