Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 48P
Consider the one-dimensional, incompressible flow through the circular channel shown. The velocity at section ① is given by U = U0 + U1 sin ωt, where U0 = 20 m/s, U1 = 2 m/s, and ω = 0.3 rad/s. The channel dimensions are L = 1 m, R1 = 0.2 m, and R2 = 0.1 m. Determine the particle acceleration at the channel exit. Plot the results as a function of time over a complete cycle. On the same plot, show the acceleration at the channel exit if the channel is constant area, rather than convergent, and explain the difference between the curves.
