ux = ux(y)
gx = g sin
u x u x u x u x P 2u x 2u x 2u x
ux uy uz g x 2

x y z
u x u x u x P 2u x 2u x
uy uz g x 2
t y z x y z 2
We finally have
d 2u x
0 g sin Change to ODE notation as ux is
dy 2 only a function of one variable

Check:
Is the equation dimensionally consistent?

Check:
Is the expression dimensionally consistent?
Does it satisfy the B.C.s?

Who rotates faster:
A or B?

Given a
flow
1. Set up the problem, imagine the flow
problem
3. Prescribe B.C.s
