Viscosity and Flow Between Plates |
symbol | description |
u | velocity of fluid along the velocity profile |
umax | velocity at the moving wall |
h | distance between top and bottom plates |
τ | shear stress |
μ | viscosity |
C | a constant |
| = |
| = C |
u = | { |
|
Therefore, C1 = 0 and C2 = |
|
u( y) = |
| umax |
| = |
