- Problem 5. The fully-developed velocity profile for laminar flow in a pipe is very different from that for turbulent flow. For laminar flow, the velocity profile is parabolic (where is centerline velocity): = 1 - (1/2)² For turbulent flow, the time averaged velocity profile can be approximated by a power-law profile: v = (1-2) 1/ Find the ratio of average velocity to centerline velocity, V/Vc, and the dimensionless radial location, * = r/R, where you would need to place a Pitot tube if it is to measure the average velocity in the pipe for (a) laminar flow and (b) turbulent flow with n = 6.0 at Rep = 20,000.

A linear velocity profile is formed in a fluid between two plates as shown in the figure when one of the plates is moved parallel to the other and there is no externally imposed pressure gradient (i.e. there is no pump). If the top plate is travels at U = 0.3 m/s and the bottom plate is held fixed and the two plates are separated by a distance d = 0.3 m/s, derive an equation for the velocity profile u(y). Assume that the fluid in contact with either plate moves at the same speed as the plate (this is called the no-slip condition). U=0.3 m/s d=0.3 marrow_forward= Problem 5. A thin oil film (u 0.80 N·s/m², p = 865 kg/m³) of height h = 5.0 mm is squeezed between two infinite parallel plates (0 ≤ y ≤ h).

Assume fully-developed laminar flow for the oil film. A pressure gradient is applied that results in zero net volumetric flowrate (Q= 0). Find (a) the velocity profile, u (y), (b) the pressure gradient, dp/dx, and (c) plot y* = y/h versus u (on x-axis).arrow_forward
