Oil SAE 30 at 15.6°C flows steadily through the 2 mm gap between two fixed, horizontal, parallel plates. A U-tube manometer indicates a differential reading of 100 mm. The fluid in the manometer is mercury. Take YHg = 133 kN/m', Yo = 8.95 kN/m' and ulo = 0.38 N s/m?. (a) Determine the pressure drop from A to B. (b) Calculate the volume flow rate per unit width, q. (c) Check if the flow is laminar. B 2 mm 05m 100 mm mercury
