Two cylinders are concentric, the outer one fixed and the inner one movable. A viscous incompressible fluid fills the gap between them. Derive an expression for the torque required to maintain constant-speed rotation of the inner cylinder if this torque depends only on the diameters and lengths of the cylinders, the viscosity and density of the fluid, and the angular speed of the inner cylinder.

It has a density of 124 kg per cubic meter. In a section of pipe with a 2.8 cm radius the fluid moves at a speed of 13 m/s, and has a pressure of 103,763 pascals. It flows into a section of pipe with a 3.87cm radius that is 5 meters higher than the first section. What the pressure in the second section of pascals?arrow_forward
- First three onlyarrow_forwardWhat is a fluid? Define mass density, specific weight, and real and ideal fluids. Differentiate between kinematics and statics.arrow_forwardConsider a propeller spinning in air. The thrust produced by the propeller is given by T. The density of the air is p. The forward velocity of the air is V. The diameter of the propeller is D. The rotational velocity of the propeller is n. The dynamic viscosity of the air is u. Using Buckingham's pi theorem, find the non-dimensional formulation of T = f (p, V, D, n, µ). Note that the non-dimensional quantities are not sensitive to multiplicative inverses, i.e. and 2 have the same meaning, as does multiplication by a constant, for example, and 2 imply the same non-dimensional group.
