Chapter 4, Problem 35P
Water enters a two-dimensional, square channel of constant width, h = 75.5 mm, with uniform velocity, U. The channel makes a 90° bend that distorts the flow to produce the linear velocity profile shown at the exit, with Vmax = 2 Vmin. Evaluate Vmin, if U = 7.5 m/s.

Water flows through a rectangular duct of height h = 575.5 mm and width b = 100 mm.(coming off screen) and enters a 90° elbow. At the entrance of the elbow, flow can be considereduniform with speed U = 58 m/s. At the output, a linear velocity profile must be consideredas shown in the figure, where Vmax = 2Vmin. Calculate the value of Vmin in m/s.
