Determine the torque required to rotate a50-mm-diameter vertical cylinder at a constant angular velocity of 30 rad/s inside a fixed outer cylinder that has a diameter of 50.2 mm. The gap between the cylinders is filled with SAE10 oil at 20 °C. The length of the inner cylinder is 200 mm. Neglect bottom effects and assume the velocity distribution in the gap is linear. If the temperature of the oil increases to 80 °C, what will be the percentage change in the torque?
