Tutorial Problem #3.
As we discussed in lecture, a concentric cylinder
viscometer is often used to measure the viscosity
(μ) of Newtonian fluids. As shown in the
accompanying figure, the outer cylinder (with
radius Ro) remains stationary while the inner
cylinder (with radius R₁) rotates at an angular
velocity of w (rev/min) and the torque (T) required
to rotate the inner cylinder is measured.

a. Starting from Newton's law of viscosity, derive the correct equation that is used to calculate u in
μ
terms of w, T, Ro, R₁ and € (the height of the fluid in the gap between the two cylinders). Because
the radial distance between the cylinders (i.e Ro - R₁) is quite small, you can assume that the velocity
profile of the fluid varies linearly with respect to distance between the cylinders.
HINT #1: Torque is the required force multiplied by the moment arm (which is R¡ in this case)
HINT #2: Multiply the angular velocity by the circumference of the…
