It is min at centre and max at the boundary.

Shear stress distribution is linear in a pipe with max at its inner face and zero at the centre.

In a pipe flow friction developed, Which cause velocity not constant throughout the section, so that shear stress never constant through the section. Shear stress proportional to the distance from center of the pipe. As radius 0 shear stress 0, and are maximum, shear stress will be maximum.

Answer will be (D) none of these.

As shear stress distribution is minimum at centre and maximum at pipe wall. Don't get confused.

Vishnu sharma said:   8 years ago
Shear stress is maximum at outer face of pipe and zero at the center of pipe of axis.

Dilwar Hossain said:   8 years ago
Shear stress is minimum at the center and maximum at the face of wall inside the pipe.

Venkatesh said:   8 years ago
B is correct. I also agree.

RAJ said:   8 years ago
Yes, the distribution diagram is K shaped. Hence, maximum at the inside faces and zero at centre. Option B is correct.
