Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 70P
A linear velocity profile was used to model flow in a laminar incompressible boundary layer in Problem 5.10. Express the rotation of a fluid particle. Locate the maximum rate of rotation. Express the rate of angular deformation for a fluid particle. Locate the maximum rate of angular deformation. Express the rates of linear deformation for a fluid particle. Locate the maximum rates of linear deformation. Express the shear force per unit volume in the x direction. Locate the maximum shear force per unit volume; interpret this result.
5.10 A crude approximation for the x component of velocity in an incompressible laminar boundary layer is a linear variation from u = 0 at the surface (y = 0) to the freestream velocity, U, at the boundary-layer edge (y = δ). The equation for the profile is u = Uy/δ, where δ = cx1/2 and c is a constant. Show that the simplest expression for the y component of velocity is υ = uy/4x. Evaluate the maximum value of the ratio υ/U, at a location where x = 0:5 m and δ = 5 mm.

Consider steady, incompressible, parallel, laminar flow of a film of oil falling slowly down an infinite vertical wall. The oil film thickness is h, and gravity acts in the negative z-direction. There is no applied (forced) pressure driving the flow—the oil falls by gravity alone., except for the case in which the wall is inclined at angle ?. Generate expressions for both the pressure and velocity fields. As a check, make sure that your result agrees with that of when ? = 90°. [Hint: It is most convenient to use the (s, y, n) coordinate system with velocity components (us, ?, un), where y is into the page in Fig. Plot the dimensionless velocity profile us* versus n* for the case in which ? = 60°.]
