Chapter 10, Problem 12P
In Example 9-18 we solved the Navier-Stekes equatien for steady, fully develeped, laminar flow in a round pipe (Poiseuille flew), neglecting gravity. Now, add back the effect of gravity by re-
solving that same problem, but use modifid pressure P instead of actual pressure P. Specifically, calculate the actual pressure field and the velocity field. Assume the pipe is horizontal, and let the datum plane z = 0 be at some arbitrary distance under the pipe. Is the actual pressure at the top of the pipe greater than equal to, or less than that at the bottom of the pipe? Discuss.
