Question
Fully laminar flow in cylindrical pipe
Consider the steady, viscous flow of Newtonian (dynamic viscosity), incompressible
(density ρ ) fluid through a pipe with a circular cross-section (radius R) under the constant
pressure gradient in the x-direction
where x1 and x2 are two arbitrary locations along the x-axis, and P1 and P2 are the pressures
at those two locations (note that we adopt a modified cylindrical coordinate system here with
x instead of z for the axial component, namely, (r, , x)). Coordinates of fluid velocity in the
cylindrical coordinates are (ur , u, u).
- Show that the velocity field inside the pipe is (0, 0, u) and (photo)
- Show that the flow discharge Q is (photo)
