Unsteady flow of a viscous fluid in pipelines with allowance for inertial forces
Abstract
A system of nonlinear partial differential equations describing unsteady flows in cylindrical tubes is solved by an epsilon method with allowance for inertia. Analytical expressions are derived for calculating the flow rate and pressure of the fluid as a function of time and of the tube cross section. An example is examined in which the flow rate at the tube exit section is given in the form of a periodic function.
