1. A fluid exhibiting Bingham plastic flow character is contained in a tube of diameter d and height The tube is closed at the bottom to contain the fluid within the tube. If the bottom is removed, find the conditions under which the fluid will flow.
If stress (Pressure) is applied to the other end of the pipe or
increased, it will produce a stress on the fluid which will make it
move and the flow rate will increase proportionally with the
applied force or shear stress. However, bingham plastic fluids will
not flow until a particular amount of stress is applied to it which
is know as yield stress. This can be more understanding with the
diagram attached.
