The document discusses laminar flow in a narrow slit and provides equations to calculate the momentum flux distribution, velocity distribution, average velocity, and maximum velocity for this type of flow. It also provides the Hagen-Poiseuille equation relating flow rate, pressure difference, geometry, viscosity, and other variables for fluid flow through a narrow channel. Additionally, it calculates the evaporation rate of chloropicrin into air using equations involving pressure, diffusivity, vapor pressure, distance, density, surface area, and other transport phenomenon variables.

2B3. Laminar flow in a narrow slit. Look at Fig. 2B.3 Flow through a slit, with B W L.
a. A Newtonian fluid is in laminar flow in a narrow slit formed by two parallel walls a distance 2B
apart. It is understood that B << W, so that edge effects are unimportant. Make a differential
momentum balance, and obtain the following expressions for the momentum-flux and velocity
distributions:

In these expressions = + =
b. What is the ratio the average velocity to the maximum velocity for this flow?
c. Obtain the slit analog of the Hagen-Poiseuille equation.

Answer:
Rate of z momentum in across surface at x ()( )|
Rate of z momentum out across surface at x+x ()( )|+
Rate of z momentum in across surface at z=0 ( )( )|=0
Rate of z momentum out across surface at z=L ( )( )|=
Gravity force acting on fluid ()()
Gravity force acting on surface at z=0 (0 )|=0
Gravity force acting on surface at z=L ( )|=
When these terms are substituted into the momentum balance:
{ } { } + { } = 0
()( )| ()( )|+ + ( 2 )|=0 ( 2 )|= + ()() + (0 )|=0
( )|= = 0
Because vz is the same at z=0 as it is at z=L for each value of x, so
()( )| ()( )|+ + ()() + (0 )|=0 ( )|= = 0
()( )|+ ()( )| = ()() + (0 )|=0 ( )|=
Divided by ()
( )|+ ( )| (0 )|=0 ( )|=
= () +

Take the limit

CCl3NO2 (chloropicrin) into air at 25oC? Make the customary assumption that air is a pure
substance.
