The maximum velocity of a one-dimensional incompressible

Home » Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery » Fluid Mechanics and Hydraulic Machinery Miscellaneous » Question

The maximum velocity of a one-dimensional incompressible fully developed viscous flow, between two fixed parallel plates, is 6 ms-1. The mean velocity (in ms-1) of the flow is

1. 2
2. 3
3. 4
4. 5

Correct Option: C

For fully developed incompressible viscous flow,

V_mean =	2	V_max
	3

=	2	× 6 = 4 m/s
