Assume that the wall shear stress, Tw, created when a fluid flows through a pipe (see Figure a) depends on the pipe diameter, D, the flowrate, Q, the fluid density, p, and the kinematic viscosity, U. Some model tests run in a laboratory using water in a 0.2-ft-diameter pipe yield the vs. Q data shown in Figure b. Perform a dimensional analysis and use model data to predict the wall shear stress in a 0.5-ft-diameter pipe through...

(7) A Bingham plastic fluid has the following stress-strain rate relationship t = 600 + 0.1 For a Couette flow (slide 39) what would be the velocity profile if the shear ду stress applied at the top layer is 200 units? What would be the velocity profile if the applied shear stress at the top layer is 1000 units? Assume the height of the fluid is H. Simple Shear Flow F T=- A where t is shear stress...
2) (35 points) It is a common practice when examining a fluid's viscous behavior to plot the shear strain rate (velocity gradient) dv dy on the abscissa versus shear stress (t) on the ordinate. When a fluid has a straight-line behavior between these two variables it is called a Newtonian fluid, and the resulting relationship is where u is the fluid viscosity. Many common fluids follow this behavior such as water, milk, and oil. Fluids that do not behave in...

I have solved the question but I found another answer. My final answer is: (Wall shear stress )= cf *(p fluid density) * u^2is it correct?(b) Resistance of an object towards the incoming flow can be quantified through localfriction coefficient, cf. The coefficient is indeed a function of wall shear stress (τw),fluid density (ρ) and incoming flow velocity (u). Using Buckingham Pi Theorem,determine the equation for the wall shear stress as a function of local friction coefficient,fluid density, and incoming flow...
