When a fluid is contained within a pipe or capillary tube, is it acted on by the largest force of friction near the walls or in the center of the tube diameter? Explain
Homework Answers
Ans.
When a fluid is contained within a pipe or capillary tube, it is acted on by the largest force of friction near the walls.
The inner surface of the pipe or capillary tube offers some friction. As the layers of the fluid from the walls increases, the friction experienced decreases. So, the largest friction is experienced near the walls.

An experimental apparatus delivers a viscous fluid through a capillary tube 10 cm long with a bore diameter of 1 mm. The tube is broken, but tubing of bore diameter 2 mm is all that is available. What should be the length of the new tube in cm so that the experiment is otherwise unchanged, i.e., so that the volume flow rate remains as before?
