SAE 10W-30 oil at 100°C is pumped through a tube L = 10 m long, diameter D = 20 mm. The applied pressure difference is Δp = 5 kPa. On the centerline of the tube is a metal filament of diameter d = 1 μm. The theoretical velocity profile for laminar flow through the tube is:
Show that the no-slip condition is satisfied by this expression. Find the location at which the shear stress is zero, and the stress on the tube and on the filament. Plot the velocity distribution and the stress distribution. (For the stress curve, set an upper limit on stress of 5 Pa.) Discuss the results.

- This is my question and if wasn't difficult I wouldn't ask for help. Help me with pleasearrow_forwardA pipe is horizontal and carries oil that has a viscosity of 0.14 Pa s. The volume flow rate of the oil is 5.3 × 10^-5 m3/s. The length of the pipe is 38 m, and its radius is 0.57 cm. At the output end of the pipe the pressure is atmospheric pressure. What is the absolute pressure at the input end?arrow_forwardplease answer the question givenarrow_forward
- Water flows from Reservoir A to Reservoir B. The pipe diameter D is 1 m, and the pipe length L is 300 m. H= 16 m, h = 2 m, and the pipe head loss is given by h₁ = 0.01), where U is the velocity in the pipe. In your solutions consider the head loss at the pipe outlet to be ( U² 2g (a) what is the discharge in the pipe? (b) What is the pressure at point P halfway between the two reservoirs?
