A patient, lying horizontally on a bed, is suffering from high cholesterol, causing narrowing in some parts of his arteries. In unaffected area, before narrowing, his bloodspeed is 0.1 meter/s. The obstructed area reduces the cross-section of artery to 35.6% of the unobstructed area. What is difference in blood pressures?

Water at 20 ° C is delivered from one reservoir to anotherthrough a long 8-cm-diameter pipe. The lower reservoirhas a surface elevation z 2 =80 m.

A 30º reducing elbow is shown. The fluid is water. Evaluate the components of force that must be provided by the adjacent pipes to keep the elbow from moving. Assume steady, incompressible, uniform flow. ρwater= 999kg/m3, Q= 0.11 m3/s.1 atm = 101 kPa;
By analogy with laminar shear, τ = μ du/dy, T. V.Boussinesq in 1877 postulated that turbulent shear couldalso be related to the mean velocity gradient τturb = ε du/dy,where ε is called the eddy viscosity and is much larger thanμ. If the logarithmic overlap law, is valid withτturb ≈τw, show that ε ≈ κρu*y.
