    Poiseuille Flow Through A Duct in 2-D

    Uploaded by

    The document summarizes the derivation of the equations governing Poiseuille flow through a duct in 2D under the assumptions of steady, incompressible flow with constant viscosity. The conservation of mass equation and the x- and y-momentum equations are presented. The y-momentum equation is solved to show that velocity is only a function of y. The x-momentum equation is integrated twice with respect to y to obtain the parabolic velocity profile for fully-developed laminar flow in a pipe.

    Poiseuille Flow Through a Duct in 2-D

    Assumptions:
    Velocity is independent of 0 , =

    x
    v
    x
    u
    x
    Incompressible flow
    Constant viscosity,
    Steady
    Pressure gradient along length of pipe is non-zero, i.e. 0

    Boundary conditions:

    No slip:
    ( ) 0
    walls are not moving
    ( ) 0
    u y h
    v y h
    = =

    = =



    To be clear, we now will take the compressible, unsteady form of the N-S
    equations and carefully derive the solution:

    Conservation of mass:

    0 ) ( = +

    V
    t



    But 0 =

    because flow is steady and incompressible. Also, since =


    constant, then V V

    = ) (

    0 =

    =
    y
    v
    x
    u
    V



    Finally, 0 =

    x
    u
    because of assumption #1 long pipe.

    0 =

    y
    v

    h y + =
    h y =

    Now, integrate this:

    C v = = constant

    Apply boundary conditions: ( ) 0 ( ) 0 v h v y = =

    We expect this but it is good to see the math confirm it.

    Now, lets look at momentum y .

    Conservation of momentum y :


    xy yy
    xy yy
    Dv p
    Dt y x y
    v p
    V v
    t y x y
    v
    t

    = + +



    + = + +

    0
    steady
    v
    u
    x
    =

    0
    v
    =
    +

    0
    xy yy
    v p
    y y x y

    =


    = + +



    Now, what about
    yy xy
    &


    xy
    u v
    y x


    = +

    0
    2
    xy
    yy
    u
    y
    v
    y


    =

    =

    \ .

    0 v
    u v
    x y

    =
    | |
    + +
    |

    \ .
    0
    0
    yy
    V

    =
    =



    So momentum y becomes:

    0
    p u
    y x y

    | |
    = +
    |

    \ .


    But 0
    u
    x y

    | |
    =
    |

    \ .
    because constant = =

    & 0
    x
    u

    Conservation of momentum x :

    \ .

    \ .


    Now, we just need to solve this


    u dp
    y y dx

    \ .


    so, & const ) ( y u u = =

    only ( ) only ( )

    must be constant
    f y f x
    d u dp
    dy dx
    =

    = const.
    dx
    dp
    pressure can only be a linear function of x !

    Now, integrating twice in y gives:
