Question 5 [20 marks) Consider Coutte flow, which occurs when we have a fluid suspended between two parallel plates, one of which is moving and the other of which is stationary. The velocity profile between these two plates is linear. We have water between these two plates and distance separating them of 1 mm.

Two immiscible Newtonian fluids are contained between infinite parallel plates. The plates are separated by distance 4h, and the top fluid layer thickness is h. The bottom layer has thickness 3h. The viscosity of the bottom fluid is three times that of the top fluid. If the lower plate moves at a constant speed of 20 m/s and the upper plate moves at a constant speed of 40 m/s, what is the average velocity within the bottom liquid layer? We...
Problem 2. An incompressible, Newtonian fluid flows downwards between two vertical parallel plates that are a distance 2h away from each other. The flow is fully developed (i.e. steady) and the entirety of the velocity is the in vertical direction and due to gravity. Assuming there is no pressure gradient, solve for this velocity, w, as a function of 2. (3 points) Figure 1: Flow between two vertical parallel plates due to gravity.
Consider steady, incompressible, laminar flow of a Newtonian fluid in the narrow gap between two infinite parallel plates.

A downward pressure is applied - dp/dz which is constant across the z-direction, which is also aided by gravity acting on the negative z-direction.
