Hagen-Poiseuille Flow: Fluid flows through a variable-diameter pipe as shown in the
figure above. The pipe dimensions, flow rate, and fluid properties are as follows:
L₁ L₂ L3 = 4 cm
A₁ = 1 cm², A₂ = 4 cm². A3 = 0.25 cm²
Q = 100 cm³/s
p= 1.06 g/cm³
u = 3.5 cP

Use conservation of mass, the Hagen-Poiseuille relationship, and the electrical circuit
analogy to answer the following:
a) What should the total pressure drop be across the length of this variable-diameter pipe
in order to provide the given flow rate Q? (Use the Hagen-Poiseuille relation and the
electrical analogy; each segment is a resistor.)
b) What is the average velocity u for each segment? (Mass conservation.)
c) What is the Reynolds number (Re =
– PHD) for each segment?
d) What are the velocities at the centerline and at the wall for each segment?
