Example: The tank shown is 4m long, 3m high, and 3m wide, and it is closed except for a small opening at the right end. It contains oil (SG=0.85) to a depth of 2m in a stationary situation. If the tank is uniformly accelerated to the right at a rate of 9.81m/s2, what will be the maximum pressure intensity in the tank during acceleration?

At steady state, oil will behave as a rigid body [pic]no relative motion between fluid particles [pic]fluid is then inviscid

Velocity profile development in pipes

“Sufficiently far from the pipe entrance, the boundary layer developing on the pipe wall reaches the pipe centerline and the flow becomes entirely viscous. The velocity profile shape changes slightly after the inviscid core disappears. When the profile shape no longer changes with increasing distance, x, the flow is fully developed. The distance downstream from the entrance to the location at which fully developed flow begins is called the entrance length. The actual shape of the fully developed velocity profile depends on whether the flow is laminar or turbulent. In Fig. 8.1 the profile is shown qualitatively for a laminar flow.

“For laminar flow, the entrance length, L, is a function of Reynolds number,

[pic] (8.1)

where D is pipe diameter, [pic]is average velocity, [pic][pic] is fluid density, and [pic] is fluid viscosity. Laminar flow in a pipe may be expected only for Reynolds numbers less than 2300. Thus the entrance length for laminar pipe flow may be as long as
