Oil Coating: A long, continuous belt is pulled upwards through a chemical oil bath at velocity V0. The belt has rectangular cross-section and has length (L), width into the paper (W). The belt picks up a film of oil of thickness h, density ρ, and dynamic viscosity μ. Gravity g tends to make the oil drain down, but the movement of the belt keeps the fluid from running off completely. Assume fully developed, steady, laminar, incompressible and two-dimensional flow of oil to answer the following questions. Assume that no pressure gradient is needed in the vertical direction to drive the film flow. Also assume that the shear stress at the air-oil interface is zero (free shear condition). Assume no-slip condition for the fluid in contact with the moving belt. Justify any other assumptions you may make. Show all steps.

Consider flow of blood in the microvessels of the body, assuming Poiseuille’s law holds and that the viscosity of the blood is constant. Consider a parent vessel that bifurcates into two daughter segments, all within the microcirculation and with blood flow described using Poiseuille’s law (assume that each segment has a different diameter and length).Denoting the pressure at node i by pi (i=1,2,3,4), and the flux in segment j by Qj (j=1,2,3), write down expressions for the segment fluxes in the network, in terms of the nodal pressures. How are the three volume fluxes related, and why? Assuming that the pressures at nodes 1, 3, 4 (the boundary nodes) are known, write down an expression for the pressure at the interior node, p2.
