VISCOUS INCOIvtPRESSIBLE FLUID FLOW IN A ROTATING PIPE WITH POROUS WALLS V. F. Molchanov Izv. AN SSSR. Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 9 9 - 1 0 0 , 1969 Consider a long c y l i n d r i c a l pipe of radius r ~ rotating about the longitudinal axis with the angular v e l o c i t y w. An incompressible fluid with the density p and k i n e m a t i c viscosity v is supplied through the pipe wails with the v e l o c i t y . V.. We are required to find the steady fluid flow v e l o c i t y field. The system of Navier-Stokes equations and the boundary conditions for the v e l o c i t y components Vr, Vq, V x in the r, ~, x c y l i n d r i c a l coordinate system m a y be written in the form The arbitrary constants must be determined so that the solution satisfies the boundary conditions (2).

Thus, the function v, satisfying (5) and (2), is d e t e r m i n e d if the function u is known. The equations defining u, ~, and 0 do not contain v; these equations are analogous to the equations for the v e l o c i t y components in a nonrotating pipe with porous walls. The solution of system (3), (4) with the boundary conditions (2) and (5) was obtained for e x a m p l e , in [1], where the functions u and ~ were represented in the form of a power series in 1/R. To illustrate the use of (7), we u t i l i z e the approximate r e l a t i o n z~ = __y-i sin'/2 ay a (8)

Equations (8) and (9) are not v a l i d for s m a l l Reynolds numbers, and to c a l c u l a t e u we must r e t a i n in the solution of [1] the terms with higher powers of 1/R. In this case the function v is n a l e u l a t e d by substituting the expression obtained for u into (7). For p r a c t i c a l calculations, for R > i03 we can use the approxim a t e relations obtained by simplifying (9) to c a l c u l a t e v" v:

Here p is pressure, r ~ is the pipe radius, and R is the Reynolds number. Since the pipe is assumed to be quite long, the end effects may be neglected and we take u = u(y), v = v(y), and w = r/(y)O(z), i . e . , the separation of variables technique is used.
