Chapter 7, Problem 4P
Fluid fills the space between two parallel plates. The differential equation that describes the instantaneous fluid velocity for unsteady flow with the fluid moving parallel to the walls is
The lower plate is stationary and the upper plate oscillates in the x-direction with a frequency ω and an amplitude in the plate velocity of U. Use the characteristic dimensions to normalize the differential equation and obtain the dimensionless groups that characterize the flow.

The following figure shows a “wetted-wall” column, in which a thin film of a reacting liquidof viscosity μ flows steadily down a plane wall, possibly for a gas-absorption study. The volumetricflow rate of liquid is specified as Q per unit width of the wall (normal to the plane of the diagram).Assume that there is only one non-zero velocity component, vx , which does not vary in the x directionand that the gas exerts negligible shear stress on the liquid film.(a) Simplify the continuity equation and show that vx = vx(y), i.e., it is a function of y only.(b) Simplify the momentum balance equation in the y-direction and show that dP/dy=0 i.e.,there is no variation of pressure horizontally across the film. Since atmyP =Patm everywhere in the film is equal to Patm. This also means that dP/dx=0(c) Simplify the momentum balance equation in the x-direction and show that it equals the equation c in the image.(d) Solve the above equation with appropriate boundary conditions and show that it…
The wind flutter on the wing of a newly proposed jet fighter is given by the following 1st order differential equation:
dy/dx = 2yx
With the Boundary Condition: y(0) = 1 (remember this means that y = 1 when x = 0)
Determine the vertical motion (y) in terms of the span (x) of the wing.
The frequency of fluctuations of the wing at mach 2 is given by the non-homogenous 2nd order differential equation:
y'' + 3y' - 10y = 100x
With the boundary conditions: y(0) = 1 and y(1) = 0 (i.e., y = 1 when x = 0 and y = 0 when x = 1)
By solving the homogenous form of this equation, complete the analysis and determine the amplitude (y) of vibration of the wing tip at mach 2.
Critically evaluate wing flutter and fluctuation frequency amplitude determined by solving the two differential equations above.
