Concept explainers
A circular disk of diameter d and of negligible thickness is rotated at a constant angular speed, ω, in a cylindrical casing filled with a liquid of viscosity μ and density ρ. The casing has an internal diameter D, and there is a clearance y between the surfaces of disk and casing. Derive an expression for the torque required to maintain this speed if it depends only on the foregoing variables.

- A seA A, soA A solid cylinder of diameter d, length and density p, falls due to gravity inside a pipe of diameter D. The clearance between the solid cylinder and the pipe is filled with a Newtonian fluid of density p and u. For this clearance fluid, the terminal velocity of the cylinder is determined to be V, assuming a linear velocity profile. However, if the clearance fluid was changed to a Newtonian fluid of density 2p and viscosity 2u, then for an assumed linear velocity profile, the terminal velocity of the cylinder was determined to be V,. From the results of these experiments, one may write that (A) V = V (C) 2 V= V (B) V=2 V, (D) V= 4 Varrow_forwardNo card B a m OO ji OON 2819:03 Image viewer L Moving belt, width b Oil, depth harrow_forwardA long wire of length L to be coated moves at a velocity V0 through a long cylindrical diefilled with an incompressible fluid (density ρ and kinematic viscosity μ).

This effect depends upon the diameter d of the tube, the surface tension o, the density p of the fluid, and the gravitational acceleration g. Show how to obtain the two Pi terms h/d and o/pd2g, where q = h and s (meaning h and s are the non-repeating parameters).
