Fluid flows past the two dimensional bar shown in figure. The pressures on the ends of the bar are as shown, and the average shear stress on the top and bottom of the bar is tavg. Assume that the drag due to pressure is equal to the drag due to viscous effects, the ratio between the average shear stress and the dynamic pressure is p = -0.2 U Width =b Tave -10h
For fluid undergoing circular motion, the centripetal force is provided by a pressure difference. Consider a fluid element (density p) at radial distance r, which has thickness dr in the radial direction and surface area dA normal to the radial direction. The pressure difference gives rise to a force on the fluid element equal to (p(r + dr) – p(r))dA. (i) Equating the pressure difference to the centripetal force, find an expression for the radial pressure gradient in terms of p, r, and fluid velocity v. (ii) A fluid is undergoing body rotation in the r-0 plane (cylindrical polar co-ordinates). By considering the gravitational pressure head, show that the shape of a free surface z(r) is parabolic. (iii) Find and sketch a similar expression for the free surface of a fluid vortex produced by a rotating cylindrical spindle (i.e. a solid cylindrical rod) of radius Ro.
