Fluid Mechanics: Fundamentals and Applications
- For liquid viscosity measurement, it is desired to create a viscometer consisting of two 30 cm long concentric cylinders. The diameter of the inner cylinder is 20 cm and the diameter of the outer cylinder is 20.2 cm. Since a torque of 0.13 N cinsm is required to rotate the inner cylinder with an angular velocity of 40 rad / s, what will be the viscosity of the fluid in the viscometer in Pa⋅s? Take the value of as 3.arrow_forwardThe Question is 50 mm-diameter and 100 mm-height cylinder is rotating with constant angularspeed of w= 300 rad/sec in a gap whose thickness varies linearly from 1 mm to 10 mm. The gap is filled with a fluid whose viscosity is 0.2 Ns/m2. Find the required torque that should be applied to the cylinder in order to maintain its motion.arrow_forwardDarrow_forward
- Task (3) The viscosity of a fluid is to be measured by a viscometer constructed of two 30-cm-long concentric cylinders. The outer diameter of the inner cylinder is 8 cm, and the gap between the two cylinders is 20mm. The inner cylinder is rotated at 350 RPM, and the torque is measured to be 2.6 N-m. Determine the viscosity of the fluid. -harrow_forwardFor the sliding plate viscometer shown below. The top plate is moving to the right with a constant velocity of 9.6 m/s in response to a force (F) N. The bottom plate is stationary. The kinamatic viscosity of the fluid betwen the two plates is 0.001 m2/s. Find the magnitude of the force (F) N, if the fluid specific gravity = 0.85, and water density = 1000 kg/m³.

Show the complete solution.arrow_forward(b) Use the above expression of the velocity to determine the expression of the torque (I) required to rotate the upper disk a constant angular velocity (o) when the gap is filled with a fluid of viscosity (μ). (c) An experiment found that a torque of 0.01 Nm is needed to rotate the disk at 500rpm. What is the viscosity of the fluid if the viscometer's radius and gap are 5cm and 2mm, respectively?arrow_forwardTwo plates are seperated by a distance 1 mm and the gap between the plates is filled with a fluid. If the force required per unit area to move one plate with a velocity of 1 mm/s relative to another plate is 0.001 N/m?, then the dynamic viscosity of the fluid in Pa.s is, 0.01 O 0.1 O 0.00001 0.001arrow_forward
- The space between two square flat parallel plates is filled with oil. Each side of the square plate is 0.8 m. The specific weight of the oil is 9620 N/m?, the thickness of the oil film is 16.6 mm and requires a force of 170 N. Take the kinematic viscosity of the liquid as 16 stokes.
