An oil (viscosity 1 Pa.s, density 800kg/m3) is flowing in an axisymmetric pipe. The flow is fully developed and laminar and the velocity at the centre of the pipe is = 30cm/s. The velocity cross-sectional profile is parabolic as:
u(r) = U0(1- r2/R2)
. Here r is the distance of the point to the pipe centre where the velocity is u(r). . R is radius of pipe (R=4mm).
Calculate:
the shear stress at the pipe wall
the shear stress within the fluid 2 mm from the pipe wall
the Reynold’s number of the flow
The velocity distribution in a fully developed laminar pipe flow is given by where UCL is the velocity at the centerline, and R is the pipe radius. The fluid density is ρ, and its viscosity is µ. (a) Find the average velocity . (b) Write down the Reynolds number Re based on average velocity and pipe diameter. At what approximate value of this Reynolds number would you expect the flow to become turbulent? Why is this value only approximate? (c) Assume that the stress/strain rate relationship for the fluid is Newtonian. Find the wall shear stress τw in terms of µ, R and UCL. Express the local skin friction coeffient Cf in terms of the Reynolds number Re.
