6.1. Use the appendices. Based on the results, discuss whether
this is incompressible flow, and in what direction the viscous
stresses on the surface of the sphere are. Also state in which
direction the inviscid stress on the surface is.
6.2 Discuss your result in view of the fact, as stated in (6.1),
that the Reynolds number must be small for Stokes flow to be valid.
What does it physically mean?
7.5. Use the appendices. You may only assume that
. with , and in
cylindrical coordinates. Do not assume that the radial velocity is
zero, derive it. Do not assume the pressure is independent of
, derive it. Ignore gravity as the question says. Note
that must have the same value at and . Answer
for :
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?
