Question: Examine the 1 D NS Eq . in a pipe flow: d e l u d e l t = - d e l p

Examine the 1D NS Eq. in a pipe flow: deludelt=-delpdelx+del2udely2
If we consider deludelt the "transient inertia force" and, as in the discussion of
Reynolds number, del2udely2, the convective shear force; please use u(y,t)=u(y)eit
and approximation in the order of magnitude analysis, del2udely2~~uD2, where D is the
characteristic pipe dimension, to demonstrate that Womersley number is the ratio of
transient inertial force over the shear force.
