9.11 HEAT CONDUCTION WITH A VISCOUS HEAT SOURCE
Consider a flow of a incompressible Newtonian fluid between two coaxial cylinders as
shown in Fig. 9.6. As the outer cylinder rotates, each cylindrical shell or fluid rubs
against an adjacent layer, this rubbing will provide the surface for thermal energy. This
viscous heat produced per unit volume is 'S,' and it depends on local velocity gradient
