In laminar flow, the maximum velocity is 2 times the average velocity.

Not getting the solution, Please explain clearly.

Vavg = 1/8myu.dp/dx.R^2.
Vmax= 1/4myu.dp/dx.R^2.

Why answer is 2? Can you explain this answer?

Adie said:   7 years ago
The answer is 3/2 or 1.25 for circular pipes.

Shravan said:   5 years ago
V(max) = 2V(avg.)
So, Vmax/Vavg.= 2.

Please can you describe the answer?

Supreeth said:   4 years ago
Uavg= (umax)/2 so ratio will be 2.

@Adie.

No, it's for plates 1.25.

Umax =2 Uavg for laminar flow.
