For laminar flow of an oil having dynamic viscosity p= 1.766 Ns'm? in a 0.3 m
diameter pipe, the velocity distribution is parabolic with a maximum point of 3
m/s at the centre of the pipe. Calculate the shearing stress at the pipe wall and
within the fluid 50 mm from the pipe wall.
Two parallel plates kept 0.1 m apart have a laminar flow of oil between them with
a maximum velocity of 1.5 m/s. Calculate the discharge per metre width. the shear
stress at the plate, and the difference in pressure in Pascal between two points 20
m apart, the velocity gradient at the plates and velocity at 0.02 m from the plate.

Oil of viscosity 0.1 Ns/m? and specific gravity 0.90 flows through a horizontal
pipe of 25 mm diameter. If the pressure drop per metre length of the pipe is 12
kPa, determine (a) the rate of flow in N/min; (b) the shear stress at the pipe wall:

flow.

The thrust of a shaft is taken by a collar bearing with a forced Jubrication system
which maintains the film of oif of constant thickness 0.3 mm between the surface
of the collar and the bearing. The outer and the inner diameters of the collar are
156 mm and 120 mm respectively. The coefficient of viscosity of oil is 1.2 poise.
Calculate the power lost in friction of the bearing when a shaft rotates at 500
revolutions per minute.
A 0.15 m diameter joumal runs in a bearing 0.3 m long. The lubricant has a
specific gravity of 0.855 and a kinematic viscosity 1.81 stroke. If the radial
clearance may assumed to be uniform and equal to 0.05 mm, determine the power
required to overcome the viscous resistance of the lubricant when the journal
rotates at 300 r.p.m.
