Take the full-blown Couette flow as shown in the figure. While the upper plate is moving and the Lower Plate is constant, flow occurs between two infinitely parallel plates separated by the H distance. The flow is constant, uncompressed, and two-dimensional in the X-Y plane. In fluid viscosity µ, top plate velocity V, distance h, fluid density ρ, and distance y, create a dimensionless relationship for component X of fluid velocity using the method of repeating variables. Show all steps in order.
Consider steady viscous flow through a small horizontal tube. For this type of flow, the pressure gradient along the tube, Δp ⁄ ΔL should be a function of the viscosity Y, the mean velocity V, and the diameter D. By dimensional analysis, derive a func- tional relationship relating these variables.
