Assignment 2

1. Given a lake temperature distribution T(x1,x2) and a boat moving along a path xi=bi(t), the rate of change of the temperature reading is equal to the substantial derivative of T with respect to time. 2. For viscous flow in a slot with velocity profile v1=v0(1-(x2/h)2), sketch the change in v1/v0 as a function of distance s/h for points at an angle of 0°, 30°, 45°, and 90° from the half-height point P'. 3. For two-dimensional flow with velocity components v1=cx1 and v2=-cx2, find expressions for the v

1. The surface temperature of a lake changes from one location to another as T(x1,x2). If you attach a thermometer
to a boat and take a path through the lake given by xi=bi(t), (i=1,2), find the rate of change of the temperature
reading in terms of the lake temperature.

2. Consider a viscous flow in a slot where the velocity profile is given by v 1=v 0 [1−( ) ] ; v2=v3=0. Here
h
v0 is the maximum velocity and h is the height of the slot. Let a point P be at the half-height h/2. Let another
point P' be at a distance ds and at various angles; 00, 300, 450 and 900. Make a sketch of the following quantities
at P', with vectors roughly to scale:
(r) (es ) (ss)
d ( v 1 / v o) d (v 1 /v o ) d (v 1 /v o )
, and .
d ( s / h) d (s / h) d (s /h)

3. Consider a two-dimensional flow with velocity componenets v1=cx1 and v2=-cx2. Find the expressions for the
vorticity and the strain-rate tensor.

4. Find the rate of expansion in problem 3.
