Boundary conditions: Null velocity at the bottom (x2=0) null friction at the surface (x2=h)
Why h cubic?
The Couette Flow Is the flow between two parallel plates, with relative velocity and with or without pressure gradient.
Boundary conditions u=U0 at y=h, u=0 at y=0
A negative pressure gradient implies a parabolic velocity profile, contributing for a positive velocity, A positive pressure gradient implies a parabolic velocity profile, contributing for a negative velocity, A plate velocity contributes with a linear profile. The resulting velocity profile is: + =
