Laminar flow dimensionless

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi

How can I do to simulate laminar flow in a tube using dimensionless form of the Navier-Stokes equation?
I am trying with this fluid properties and conditions:
- material density = 1
- material viscosity = 1/Re
- inlet: velocity = 2*(u/u0)*(1-(r^2/R_tube^2)) Poiseuille velocity profile
- outlet: pressure = p_tube/p0
Is it correct?

Thanks in advance,

Javier
