ChatGPT Learning Dialog
First try to answer the question yourself. Then use the hint, the solution or ask ChatGPT for a deeper explanation.
Why is velocity zero at the pipe wall?
Think about friction and adhesion.
Due to viscosity, fluid sticks to the wall.
What happens when the pipe gets narrower?
Think about constant flow rate.
Velocity increases when cross-section decreases.
