3. An incompressible, viscous fluid with density, p, flows past a solid flat plate which has a depth, b, into the page. The flow initially has a uniform velocity U., before contacting the plate. After contact with the plate at a distance x downstream from the leading edge, the flow velocity profile is altered due to the no-slip condition. The velocity profile at location x is approximated to have a linear shape, u = U. z for y s 8...
Problem 1 An incompressible, viscous fluid with density, p, flows past a solid flat plate which has a width, b, into the page. The flow initially has a uniform velocity U before contacting the plate. The velocity profile at location x is estimated to have a parabolic shape, u-u[(Y)-(,)21"for ysiand u-vfor y 20 where isthe boundary layer thickness. (a) Determine the upstream height from the plate, h, of a streamline which has a height, 6, at the downstream location, x....
Water can be considered as a non-viscous incompressible fluid of density p. A laboratory set-up is such that water flows through a pipe, exhibiting a laminar and steady-state flow. At the top end of the pipe, the flow tube has a cross-sectional area A and point 1 (located on the central streamline) is exposed to the ambient environment. The pipe drops through a A vertical distance h7 while its area decreases to when it reaches point 2 (also on the...
Consider laminar flow of an incompressible fluid past a flat plate. The boundary layer velocity profile is given as u = U sin () a. Determine the boundary layer thicknesses 8, 8, as a function of x.
