DONT USE CHATGPT!!!!PROBLEM 3
Oil is lubricating the space between two plates separated by a distance h. The density of oil is p and its viscosity . The lef plate is moving up at a velocity V . There is no gravity or pressure gradient acting on the oil. The oil can be considered as an incompressible fluid and the system is in steady state.
Part 1
i) Write and number all assumptions that are reasonable to make in this case.
ii) Write the continuity equation in differential form and in the most general way (with all terms). Then, simplify the continuity equation indicating at each step the assumptions that were used.
iii) Based on the continuity equation simplified above, and using appropriate boundary conditions, determine the value of the velocity in the x direction u.
iv) Write the Navier-Stokes equation in the y- direction and simplify it. Again, indicate at each step the assumptions used.
v) Indicate the boundary conditions to be used for the velocity in the y-direction v.
vi) Solve the equation in (iv) and use the boundary conditions to find unknown constants. vii) Plot the velocity profile and shear stress profile between the plates.
Part II:
Consider h=1mm;=900kgm3;=0.01 Pa.s; V=1cms;
viii) Calculate the magnitude of the shear stress at the left plate and draw the direction of the force acting on the plate.
ix) Calculate the magnitude of the shear stress at the right plate and draw the direction of the force acting on the plate.
x) Calculate the mass flow rate of oil for a plate width W=10cm into the page.
