if liquid A and liquid B are in contact, at the interface:

Example 1: Momentum balance for circular pipe
18

Flow in a circular conduit is a common problem


engineers deal with.
A horizontal pipe in which an incompressible
Newtonian fluid is flowing in one-dimensional,
steady-state, laminar flow. The flow is fully
developed, that is, it is not influenced by the
entrance effects and velocity profile does not vary
along the axis of the flow direction (x-axis).
Analyze the system and derive a mathematical
equation defining the velocity distribution along
the axis of flow in terms of fluid properties and
pipe diameter.

Two immiscible incompressible fluids are flowing in


the z-direction in a horizontal thin slit of length L
and with width W under the influence of a pressure
gradient. The fluid rates are so adjusted that the
slit is half filled with fluid I (the lesser dense phase)
and half filled with fluid II (the more dense phase).
It is desired to analyze the system in terms of the
distribution of velocity and momentum flux.
