A sink of strength 20 m2/s is situated 3 m upstream of a source of 40 m²/s in a uniform stream. It is found that, at a point 2.5 m from both source and sink, the local velocity is normal to the line joining the source and sink. Find the velocity at this point and the velocity of the uniform stream. Locate any stagnation points and sketch the flow field.
Calculate the discharge passing through a 2-D steady, irrotational and incompressible flow between points (1,3) and (5,4), if stream function is given by ψ = 2x^2y.
Water flows through a rectangular duct of height h = 575.5 mm and width b = 100 mm.(coming off screen) and enters a 90° elbow. At the entrance of the elbow, flow can be considereduniform with speed U = 58 m/s. At the output, a linear velocity profile must be consideredas shown in the figure, where Vmax = 2Vmin. Calculate the value of Vmin in m/s.
