Pressure Driven Flow

In this chapter it is shown that solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations can be derived for steady, fully developed flow of a constant-viscosity Newtonian fluid through a cylindrical duct. Such a flow is known as a Poiseuille flow. For a pipe of circular cross section, the term Hagen-Poiseuille flow is used. Solutions are also derived for shear-driven flow within the annular space between two concentric cylinders or in the space between two parallel plates when there is relative tangential movement between the wetted surfaces, termed Couette flows. The concepts of wetted perimeter and hydraulic diameter are introduced. It is shown how the viscometer equations result from the concentric-cylinder solutions. The pressure-driven flow of generalised Newtonian fluids is also discussed.

Abstract For plane Poiseuille flow, results of previous investigations were studied, focusing on experimental data on the critical Reynolds number, the entrance length, and the transition length. Consequently, concerning the natural transition, it was confirmed from the experimental data that (i) the transition occurs in the entrance region, (ii) the critical Reynolds number increases as the contraction ratio in the inlet section increases, and (iii) the minimum critical Reynolds number is obtained when the contraction ratio is the smallest or one, and there is no-shaped entrance or straight parallel plates. Its value exists in the neighborhood of 1300, based on the channel height and the average velocity. Although, for Hagen-Poiseuille flow, the minimum critical Reynolds number is approximately 2000, based on the pipe diameter and the average velocity, there seems to be no significant difference in the transition from laminar to turbulent flow between Hagen-Poiseuille flow and plane Poiseuille flow.

Abstract The Reynolds equations of motion of turbulent flow of incompressible fluid have been studied for turbulent flow between parallel plates. The number of these equations is finally reduced to two. One of these consists of mean velocity and correlation between transverse and longitudinal turbulent-velocity fluctuations u 1 ′ u 2 ′ ¯ only. The other consists of the mean pressure and transverse turbulent-velocity intensity. Some conclusions about the mean pressure distribution and turbulent fluctuations are drawn. These equations are applied to two special cases: One is Poiseuille flow in which both plates are at rest and the other is Couette flow in which one plate is at rest and the other is moving with constant velocity. The mean velocity distribution and the correlation u 1 ′ u 2 ′ ¯ can be expressed in a form of polynomial of the co-ordinate in the direction perpendicular to the plates, with the ratio of shearing stress on the plate to that of the corresponding laminar flow of the same maximum velocity as a parameter. These expressions hold true all the way across the plates, i.e., both the turbulent region and viscous layer including the laminar sublayer. These expressions for Poiseuille flow have been checked with experimental data of Laufer fairly well. It also shows that the logarithmic mean velocity distribution is not a rigorous solution of Reynolds equations.

Abstract Here, we discuss the flow of a mixture of two fluids between two parallel plates, within the framework of the theory of interacting continua. In the case of a flow due to a pressure gradient along the plates, in marked contrast to the classical Poiseuille flow, we find a variety of solutions, from those that are close to parabolic to those solutions that are spatially periodic across the plates, depending on the values for the viscosities of the fluid.

Poiseuille flow and thermal transpiration of a rarefied gas between parallel plates with nonuniform surface properties in the transverse direction are studied based on kinetic theory. We considered a simplified model in which one wall is a diffuse reflection boundary and the other wall is a Maxwell-type boundary on which the accommodation coefficient varies periodically and smoothly in the transverse direction. The spatially two-dimensional (2D) problem in the cross section is studied numerically based on the linearized Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook–Welander (BGKW) model of the Boltzmann equation. The flow behavior, i.e., the macroscopic flow velocity and the mass flow rate of the gas as well as the velocity distribution function, is studied over a wide range of the mean free path of the gas and the parameters of the distribution of the accommodation coefficient. The mass flow rate of the gas is approximated by a simple formula consisting of the data of the spatially one-dimensional (1D) problems. When the mean free path is large, the distribution function assumes a wavy variation in the molecular velocity space due to the effect of a nonuniform surface property of the plate.
