7.5. You may assume that the velocity and pressure are
independent of the angular and axial positions in cylindrical
coordinates. Also assume that the flow is steady with no velocity
component in the axial direction. Do not assume the radial velocity
is zero.
In 7.5, what is the power needed to keep the rod rotating, per
unit axial length? What is the pressure difference between the
surfaces of the pipe and the rod?
7.6. Do not ignore gravity, but assume the pipe is horizontal.
Careful, the gravity vector is not constant in polar
coordinates. Do not ignore the pressure gradients: assume the
pressure can be any function
. Merely assume
that the pressure distribution at the end of the pipe and rod
combination is the same as the one at the start. For the velocity
assume
and . Anything else
must be derived. Give both velocity and pressure field.
7.9. You can assume that the film thickness is so small that
the curvature of the pipe wall can be ignored. In that case, it
becomes 2D steady flow along a flat wall of spanwise length in the -direction. Take the -axis downwards. Assume
only (developed flow), (two-dimensional
flow), and . Everything else must be derived; give both
pressure and velocity field. Do not ignore gravity. For the
boundary conditions at the free surface, assume that the liquid
meets air of zero density and constant pressure there. Also
write appropriate boundary conditions where the fluid meets the
cylinder surface.
