  1. Pipe Flow Example Water flows steadily into the circular pipe with a uniform inlet velocity profile as shown. Due to the presence of viscosity, the velocity immediately adjacent to the inner pipe wall becomes zero and this phenomenon is called the no-slip boundary condition. It is found out that the velocity distribution reaches a parabolic profile at a distance downstream of the entrance and can be represented as V1(r)=Vmax[1-(r/R)2], where Vmax is the velocity at the center of the pipe and r is the radial distance measured away from the center axis. Use the mass conservation equation, determine Vmax. V1(r )=Vmax[1-(r/R)2] P1 R: radius of pipe VO PO

  2. Mass Conseration 0, steady state

  3. Momentum Conservation Assume there is no significant forces acting between the pipe and the fluid except the pressure forces normal to the pipe inlet (PO) and the section 1 (P1). Use linear momentum conservation equation, estimate the pressure difference between these two sections in order to accelerate the velocity profile inside the pipe from the inlet to a parabolic profile at section 1. Assume the pressure is uniform both at the inlet and section 1.
