Problem 2.1: In this problem we are interested in the continuity equation for axisymmetric flow
in terms of the cylindrical coordinate system (r,φ,z), where all flow variables are independent of
angular coordinate, φ. Let the velocity components (u,v,w) = (u,0,w) in the (r,φ,z) coordinate
directions. (a) Show that the continuity equation is given by
Solution: Let us consider an annular control volume with square cross-sectional area equal to drdz
centered at (r,z). Let us label the sides of the control volume R,L,T,B the centers of which are located
at (r,z +dz/2), (r,z −dz/2), (r+dr/2,z), (r−dr/2,z), respectively. In this analysis the horizontal
coordinate is z and the vertical (or radial) coordinate is r. The flow through each of the surfaces is
The conservation of mass principle means that the net flow of mass out of the control volume is
zero, i.e.,
m˙ R − m˙ L + m˙ T − m˙ B = 0
This holds for both steady and unsteady conditions because ρ is assumed to be constant. An
incompressible flow is volume preserving and, hence, this result is independent of whether or not
the flow is steady. This is not the case for Euler’s equation of motion; see Exercise 2.4. Substituting
the expressions for the mass flow across each part of the control surface and rearranging
terms, we get the equation given above.
(b) Show that the Stokes’s stream function ψ defined by the following expressions for the
velocity components
By direct substitution of these expressions into the continuity equation, we see that the continuity
equation is automatically satisfied. Note that the function ψ is assumed to be a function for which
the order of differentiation is immaterial.
Problem 2.2: In this problem we want to transform the continuity equation given in (x,y) to polar
coordinates (r,φ). The two coordinate systems are related by the following formulas: x = rcosφ. y
= rsinφ. Let the components of the velocity in (x,y) be given by u = (ux,uy) and the components in
(r,φ) by u = (u,v). Note that
ux = ucosφ − v sinφ, uy = usinφ + v cosφ
We want to transform
What we need to recall is that the derivative of any property f transforms as follows:
Since r2 = x2 + y2
Hence,
Thus,
Adding these equations and equating them to zero, we get the result sought.
Extension 1 of Problem 2.2 (see also Problem 2.7): The condition for irrotationality for two-
dimensional planar flows in an (x,y) Cartesian coordinate system is:
.
Transform this relationships to cylindrical polar coordinates, (r,θ), by checking and applying the
following transformation relationships:
x = rcosθ, y = rsinθ.
Note that: u = ur cosθ − uθ sinθ,
and
v = ur sinθ + uθ cosθ.
Also note that
.
The solution is
Extension 2 of Problem 2.2 (see also Section 3.2.2): The second-derivative transformation
equations are as follows:
.
The second derivative relationships are useful for transforming
to polar coordinates. By substituting f = φ in the second-derivative relations and adding the two
resulting equations, we get
Problem 2.3: Sections 2.4 and 2.6 on continuity and momentum equations, respectively, are
useful. The procedure based on control-volume analysis is applied to derive the continuity and
momentum equations. The same procedure can be applied to derive the convection-diffusion
equation for C in this problem.
Assume that none of the contaminant is created within the flow field. Assume that the
transport of the contaminant matter is by convection and diffusion. In part (a) we assume that the
velocity field is unchanged and, hence, the contaminant must be sufficiently dilute. If this is not
the case, then the density of the fluid containing the contaminant could be changed in such a way
as to alter the motion of the fluid in an analogous way as when temperature changes in a fluid are
sufficient to cause hot air or hot water to naturally rise above cold air or cold water. This is the key
concept that leads to pointing out in the problem statement that the contaminant is dilute.
The rate of increase in C in an infinitesimal control volume like the one drawn in Fig. 2.20 in
the text is
The net convective transport of C across the boundary of the control volume in Fig. 2.20 is,
substituting C for ρu, the horizontal component of the momentum, in Eq. (2.62a) and assuming u
= (u,v) is divergence free, we get
The diffusion of C across the surface of the control volume is (by analogy with the development
of surface forces that led to Eq. (2.65a))
3
Summing the three contributions leads to the result given in part (a). The equation is
Part (b) asks about the necessity of assuming a dilute suspension of contaminant. First of all
we assumed the flow field was unchanged. This is the key for the necessity of the assumption that
the contaminant is dilute. In addition, the diffusion coefficient may be a function of the
thermodynamic state. A first cut at dealing with this is to keep the derivatives of D in the formula.
A second step would be to take into account the changes in density of the fluid particle to
determine whether or no the changes in density are sufficient to induce natural convection. More
extensive treatments of mass transport can be found in the literature; a good source is the book
by Bird, Stewart and Lightfoot [4]. To take into account contaminant generation it is handled like
a body force term in the momentum equation. Hence, the equation in (a) is altered as follows:
Problem 2.4: In this problem we are interested in the components of the momentum equation
for an inviscid pressure-driven flow subjected to a conservative body force. Le us assume that the
control volume in this problem is the same as given in the solution of Problem 2.1. Also in the
solution of Problem 2.1 the mass rate of flow through each face of the control surface that
completely surrounds the control volume is given. Let us assume that there are two components
of an external body force applied to the element of fluid and they are the compnenets of the vector
g = (gr,gz). Let us also assume that the only surface force acting on the surface of the control
volume is pressure. Thus, we have neglected viscous normal and shear stresses (i.e., we assume
the flow is inviscid). There are two components of the momentum equation that are not zero
because we assumed axisymmetric flow with zero swirl; as we have done in Problem
2.1. The radial and axial components of the momentum principle, respectively, are:
which are the equations of motion sought. These are the components of Euler’s equation for
axisymmetric flow.
Problem 2.5: Section 2.7 gives the solution procedure. The first set is to interpret u as the radial
component of the velocity, and, hence, x as the radial coordinate, and interpret v as the z
component of the velocity (w) and, hence, y as the axial coordinate. The main additions that need
to be included are that area through the control surface perpendicular to the r direction increases
with r and is equal to 2πrdφ, where φ is the coordinate in the angular direction. Axisymmetry
implies that there are no changes in properties of the flow in the φ direction. Also assumed is that
there is no angular velocity component. This does not mean that there is no rate of strain in the
φ direction. In fact, for a fix δr and δz for r1 < r2 the control volume is larger for r2 as compared
with the control volume around r1. Thus, transporting the flow radially leads to ˙ .
Otherwise, the derivation of the rates of strain follow the development given in Section 2.7.
In Part (b) of this problem is to transform the (x,y,z) form of the Navier-Stokes equations to
cylindrical polar coordinates (r,φ,z) such that the changes in any property in φ are zero. Also,
assume the velocity vector is u = (u,0,w) in the polar coordinates. Since differentiation of the unit
vector k, which is in the z direction, is zero, the formula for the ∇·∇f = ∇ 2f term given in the solution
of Problem 2.2 can be applied directly to get ∇ 2w, the last term in the last equation given in the
problem statement. If you take the second derivative of the first two terms in the first equation in
the problem statement of Problem 2.2, you get the correct form for the third, fourth and fifth terms
on the right hand side of the next to last equation in the problem statement for this problem.
Problem 2.6: Euler’s equations for two-dimensional flows can be transformed from (x,y) to (r,φ)
by applying the formulas given in the solution for Problem 2.2. Of course, the body force
components must be converted from (gx,gy) to (gr,gφ) by similar formulas for ur and uφ given in
the solution of Problem 2.2.
Problem 2.7: Care is required to draw the fluid particle and how it moves (as suggested in the
hint). The vorticity can be found as given in one of the extensions to the solution of Problem 2.2.
To examine the other rates of strain it may be convenient for the student to start with the particle
in Fig. 2.13. An alternative approach is to apply the transformation equations in the solution of
Problem 2.2 to the rates of strain in (x,y). The best treatment of the transformation relations as
they apply to vectors and tensors is given in an appendix in Bird, Stewart and Lightfoot [4].
Problem 2.8: In this problem the shear stress is tangent to circles of radius r. The shear stress is
equal to τ = µRω/h. The area on which it acts is 2πrdr × L. Thus, the torque associated with this
stress (force per unit area) is dT = tan2πr2 dr ×L. This needs to be integrated from r = 0 to r = R to
obtain the formula given. The power is equal to 2πnT = Tω. This is also what is given.
Problem 2.9: The key to this solution is to start, as indicated in the problem statement, with the
formulas for the two compnenets of the Navier-Stokes equations in cylindrical coordinates given
in Problem 2.5. You need to replace the formula for v to v = −az/ζ2. This is to take into account the
fact that areas perpendicular to r are equal to 2πr. Otherwise, the method is exactly what is
presented in Section 2.10.3.

"You will naturally ask why I am telling these facts now. I have
two reasons. Fortune has deserted me at last. I had intended to
reveal Guy's parentage when he stood in the dock so deeply stained
with crime that part of the odium he incurred would necessarily fall
upon you. More recently I determined that I would refrain from
putting that coping stone on the edifice of my revenge. Not out of any
misplaced tenderness for you. Do not think that. My reason was a
purely selfish one. My adopted son had somehow endeared himself
to me. I foresaw in him an ornament to my own profession. I became
sentimental and so, foolish. I thought he should always remain my
son. I forgot that he had your blood in his veins and I let him fall
under your influence. I forgot too that a girl can shatter the most
complete philosophy with a glance of her eyes. The young fool has
fallen in love with Meriel Challys, and the consequence is that he has
got into his head a ridiculous idea that he must deliver himself up to
justice in order to make amends for his legitimate spoiling of the
Egyptians, Flurscheim and yourself. He is proposing to do so within
the next forty-eight hours, so you may have time to prevent his
voluntary martyrdom—a martyrdom he will certainly regret, judging
from my own experience. Do not think, however, that I am only
animated by Guy's interests. I am still keenly alive to my own safety.
I have had quite enough of prison life, and am well prepared with
means of escape, though I do not desire to end my existence just
yet. Of course, if you care to sacrifice your son in order that I shall
not escape, that is your affair. Guy knows nothing of his parentage,
though I have taken steps to inform him of it should you fail to do so.
I shall not leave him entirely in your hands."
Captain Marven laid the letter down, and, dropping his face in
his hands, he groaned aloud. His heart was sick with anguish. His
long lost son was returned to him, but in what guise? By training, by
profession, he was a thief. Guy Marven, his son, a thief! The horror
of it was almost too great to be borne! It was the bitterest blow of his
life, far more bitter even than the blow which had fallen when his
baby boy had been stolen from him. If Lynton Hora could have
watched the effect produced by his communication, even his thirst
for revenge would have been satisfied. But more bitter even than the
knowledge of what his son had become was the realisation of the
burden of duty which the revelation thrust upon him. As he realised
his duty in the matter, Captain Marven's face was grey with anguish.
He had found his son only to lose him again—to lose him amongst
the yellow-garbed denizens of the convict prison. More, it was he
who must, with his own hand, send him to that outer darkness. God
grant that his son would be a man! God grant it! That was Captain
Marven's earnest prayer.
Then his wife and Meriel? What if they were to learn of Guy's
relationship. Captain Marven could only dimly conceive the effect
upon them.
The servant came again to announce that the cab was awaiting
him. Marven rose, but it was as a man ten years older than the one
who had opened Hora's letter ten minutes before. His face was lined,
and his hand tremulous, but his lips were set firmly. He saw his duty
plainly before him. There was only one path he could tread, even
though every step on that path gave him a fresh pang. But he must
see Guy first, before he took that step.
He entered the cab and was driven to the Albany. He was more
master of himself by the time he arrived. He wondered what he
should do if Guy should be absent from home, for the time at his
command was short. Within an hour he was due at the Foreign
Office.
Guy opened the door, and started with amazement at sight of
his visitor's face.
"Captain Marven!" he exclaimed. Then a great fear took
possession of him. "Meriel?" he gasped.
Marven grasped the intention of the query.
"Meriel was all right when I left her this morning," he replied.
Guy's relief was obvious. "Are you ill? Is anything the matter?"
he asked, as he closed the door behind the Captain, and followed
him into his sitting-room.
Marven was at a loss for words. Hora's letter was in his hand.
He held it out to Guy, and said huskily, "Read this."
"But——" interrupted Guy.
"No, read this," repeated Marven.
Guy took the letter. He recognised the handwriting, and he
wondered. His wonder gave place to amazement as he read.
Amazement was succeeded by horror, and, when he had finished
reading, the paper dropped from his hands, and he turned his face
away from the man who had brought it, in a vain endeavour to
conceal his emotion. He was hardly aware that a hand was laid on
his arm, until a voice, tremulous with emotion, said, "Guy, my son."
He disdained concealment then. He wheeled round and
clutched blindly at the two hands outstretched to meet his own.
"Father, forgive! forgive!" he muttered brokenly.
