32 CHAPTER 9. VISCOUS FLOW<br />

U<br />

(a) Choose appropriate scalings for the lengths and velocities in the<br />

<strong>flow</strong> direction and cross stream directions. Scale the mass and<br />

momentum equations.<br />

(b) Solve the equations, subject to the no slip condition at the two<br />

surfaces, to determine the velocity as a function of the pressure<br />

gradient.<br />

(c) Determine the pressure gradient as a function of the total flux of<br />

fluid through the gap, using the condition that the flux at any<br />

horizontal position is a constant.<br />

(d) How would you determine the value of the flux<br />
