Question
The velocity field of a certain two-dimensional flow is given bywhere . The coordinates and are in meters. Assume gravitational effects to be negligible.If the density of the fluid is and the pressure at the origin is , the pressure at the location is _____________ kPa.(Answer in integer)
Correct answer
83.999 to 84.001
Solution
The velocity components are and . The flow is steady and incompressible. We check for irrotationality:Since the flow is irrotational, we can apply Bernoulli's equation between the origin and the point :At the origin :
At the point :
Given , Substituting into Bernoulli's equation:
At the point :
Given , Substituting into Bernoulli's equation:
