Assignment 2 Problems For Momentum Transfer
3. Write the shell momentum balance for flow between two parallel
plates, top of which is moving at constant velocity V while the
bottom plate is stationary.
Determine the velocity profile and calculate shear forces on the
top plate.
5. Three parallel plates are separated by two fluids. The bottom plate,
plate 1, is at rest. Water of viscosity 0.8 Cp at 30oC lies between
plate 1 and 2, while toluene, viscosity 0.52 Cp lies between plate 2
and 3. The distance between each pair of plates is 10 cm. Plate 3
moves at 3 m/sec. Find the velocity of plate 2 at steady state. Also,
determine the force per unit area on plate 3 required to maintain
the velocity at 3 m/sec.
